Dirty No-Gooder's Blues - Original |
| Did you ever fall in love with a man that was no good? |
| Did you ever fall in love with a man that was no good? |
| No matter what you did for him, he never understood |
| The meanest thing he could say would thrill you through and through |
| The meanest thing he could say would thrill you through and through |
| And there wasn’t nothin' too dirty for that man to do |
| He’d treat you nice and kind till he win your heart and hand |
| He’d treat you nice and kind till he win your heart and hand |
| Then he git so cruel that man, you just could not stand |
| Lawd, I really don’t think no man’s love can last |
| Lawd, I don’t think no man’s love can last |
| They’ll love you to death then treat you like a thing of the past |
| There’s nineteen men livin' in my neighborhood |
| There’s nineteen men livin' in my neighborhood |
| Eighteen of them are fools and the one ain’t no doggone good |
| Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd |
| Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd, Lawd |
| That dirty no-good man treats me just like I’m a dog |
