Men Are Getting Scarce |
| Girls listen, I’m gonna cool you cooks to something |
| Listen to this |
| Men are gettin scarce girls |
| Gettin' scarce as hen’s teeth, yeah |
| Men are gettin' scarce girls |
| Gettin' scarce as hen’s teeth, yeah |
| There used to be a time |
| When a woman could get a man with just her charms |
| Now in order for a woman to get a man |
| She gotta, she gotta take him |
| She gotta take him, she gotta take him |
| She gotta take him right out of another woman’s arms |
| Men are gettin scarce girls |
| Oh their gettin' scarce girls |
| Gettin' scarce as hen’s teeth,(ha ha) |
| And that’s mighty scarce |
| Listen to this |
| I was talkin' to this woman the other day |
| Now she said, she was gonna quit her man |
| 'Cause he’s got a raggedy car |
| Can you get to that, look here, huh |
| Women are funny though |
| Every time her car is runnin' good |
| They say chile, that’s my car (laughter) |
| Soon as it gets to runnin' bad |
| She say ah I don’t want that old car |
| That’s his car (laughter) |
| Listen she gonna say to me |
| She said the other day, she said |
| It runs hot, it burns oil |
| This ole car is beat and rundown |
| The other day the battery fell dead |
| Right in the heart of town, embarrassin' me |
| Let me twll you one thing baby |
| You tell that man to get a tune up on that car |
| Get a new set of spark plugs, some brand new tires |
| And a new water pump and you keep that man |
| 'Cause let me tell you one thing right now |
| Men are gettin scarce girls |
| Ah their gettin' scarce girls |
| They’re gettin' scarce as hen’s teeth,(ha ha) |
| And that’s mighty scarce |
| Hold it band, hold it, hold it a minute |
| Say Miss Lady, now you just gonna sit there at that table |
| And eat all the barbecue and ain’t gonna give me none (mumble) |
| Say what? |
| Oh not you again |
| Say LeRoy, here’s this woman with them skinny legs again |
| She got a greasy mouth this time |
| Come over here and get this greasy mouth woman |
| She reminds me of them folks up in Navisoda, Texas |
| Eatin' barbecue and drinkin' red soda water on the 19th of June (laughter) |
| Look here, give me a piece of that barbecue |
| And kiss me with your greasy mouth (laughter) |
| I was talkin' to this woman the other day |
| Now here’s a woman that was gonna quit her man |
| 'Cause he wasn’t makin' enough money on his job |
| Talkin' 'bout how much tax Uncle Sam take out of his money |
| She went on to say something like this |
| She say they take tax and more tax and they keep on takin' that tax |
| Why he take so much money from my man |
| We ain’t got enough to relax |
| Well let me tell you one thing baby |
| You let that man stay on that ole measely job |
| And let him keep bringin' home that little $ 72.50 every week |
| And you keep that man |
| 'Cause Uncle Sam is gonna get his baby |
| Don’t you worry about that |
| Men are gettin' scarce baby |
| They’re gettin' scarce as hen’s teeth |
| You got some women their man ain’t got no job |
| Men droppin' off like flies |
