You Can't Give It Away - Original

What is that you’re going around here trying so sell?
It’ain’t good to eat, you know, it ain’t good to smell
Don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
You can’t even give it away
First time I met you had that meat in your hand
Going to give it to some woman’s man
Ah, don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
You can’t even give it away
(spoken: Play it, Dennis, tell all about it)
You got something you can’t sell and you can’t give away
You just as well to take it on back where you stay
Ah, don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
Don’t nobody want it
