No Money, No Love |
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 — |
