No Love No Money |
| Ivy pack up she clothes to leave |
| Because John was down and out |
| All alone he was left to grieve |
| She had a next man in South |
| She said openly |
| I really love you Johnny |
| But you ain’t have no money |
| So what will my future be Even though you love me? |
| We can’t love without money |
| We can’t make love on hungry belly |
| Johhny you’ll be the only one I’m dreaming of You’re my turtle dove |
| But no money no love |
| If you hear how he plead with she to get she to understand |
| Listen, mister, she tell Johnny |
| Leggo me blasted hand |
| And make up your mind |
| We got to break up this lime |
| She said poverty is a crime |
| You got no money |
| Still you tanglin' me all the blinkin' time |
| Gentleman let me tell you plain |
| She say I don’t want to make a scene |
| But if you only touch me again |
| The police will intervene |
| You ain’t got a cent |
| I couldn’t even pay me rent |
| I had to give up me appartment |
| You give me nothing to eat |
| Now you want me to sleep on the pavement? |
| Johhny nearly killed she with blows |
| Poor Ivy bawl like a cow |
| Rip up she wig and he tear down she clothes |
| The South man ain’t want she now |
| Oh, Lord, what a fight |
| They roll until broad daylight |
| Charlotte street was hot that night |
| She get some good lick but she let go kick and some bite |
| — singing — |
