My Man Blues - Original |
| 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 damper 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!!! |
