Well, I got somethin’to tell ya Baby, you can’t do You can’t love me And some other man, too |
'Cause you’s a old lady |
Know you’s a old lady |
Now, you’s a old lady |
Babe, an you don’t know how you do Well, I give you my money |
You left me cold in hand |
You’re takin’my money |
An give it to your other man |
But you’s a old lady |
Know you’s a old lady |
Know you’s a old lady |
You don’t know exactly how you do |
'Well, sing it Maceo' |

Now, you promised me a car |
You know, an a diamond ring |
You bought my clothes |
You couldn’t understand |
'Cause you was a old lady |
Know you was a old lady |
You was a old lady |
You didn’t know exactly how do you do You said, when you look at my face |
You love me mo’an mo' |
I could love you, too |
But I just won’t tell you, so |
'Cause you’s a old lady |
'Cause you’s a old lady |
Know you’s a old lady |
And you don’t know exactly how you do |
(harmonica &instrumental) |
Well, you put out my dress, I bought you |
You put off my stockin’s, too |
You’s so funny, I can no wonder |
You don’t know exactly how to do |
'Cause you’s a old lady |
Know you’s a old lady |

'Cause you’s a old lady |

Know you’s a old lady |
You don’t know exactly how to do. |
