Looking For My Man Blues (09-28-27) |
Who was that man I saw you with the other day? |
That was my smooth black daddy that we call Charlie Gray |
Don’t you know that’s my man? |
Yes, that’s a fact |
I ain’t seen your name printed up and down his back |
You better let him be |
What old gal? |
Because you ain’t talkin' to me |
That’s my man, I want him for my own |
(spoken: No! No!) |
He’s my sweet daddy |
You’d better leave that man alone |
See that suit he’s got on? |
I bought it last week |
I’ve been buyin' clothes for five years for that is my black sheik |
Is that you honey? |
'Tain't nobody but, who’s back here? |
It sounds like Charlie |
It is my man, sweet papa Charlie Gray |
Your man? |
How do you git that way? |
Now, look here, honey, I been had that man for umpteen year |
Child, didn’t I turn your damper1 down? |
Yes, Clara, and I’ve cut you every way but loose! |
Well, you might as well be get it fixed |
Well, then… |
I guess we got to have him on cooperation plan |
I guess we got to have him on cooperation plan |
(spoken: Bessie! Clara!) |
Ain’t nothin' different 'bout that rotten two time man |
How about it? |
Suits me! |
Suits me! |
Well then!!! |
