danny small and ukulele mays - loud speaking papa lyrics

[intro: spoken]
say, boy, miss lucy bought a radio last night
did she, boy?
yes, and her old man bawled her out
and for bawling her out, boy, you should have heard what she told him
what she tell him, boy?
this is what she told him:

[verse]
lucy lee from tennessee
went and bought a radio set
she also had as a household pet
the loudest+speakin’ papa that i’ve heard yet
he talked tough, acted rough
and he strutted terribly proud
he’d rave and shout out loud
he always sounded like a crowd
one night he bawled her out about her radio
that made miss lucy angry and shе told him so
what she say, boy?
she said:

[chorus]
loud+speakin’ papa, you bеtter speak easy to me!
someday you’ll shout, and then no doubt
i’m gonna turn your dial and tune you out
’cause i don’t have to listen to your noise and din
there’s plenty other stations i can tune right in
so loud+speakin’ papa, you better speak easy to me! (sh sh)
you better speak easy to me
[scatting]

[bridge]
you’re listenin’ now to station w+i+f+e
your mamma is announcin’, listen carefully
if you get mamma angry, just as sure as you’re born
i’m gonna twist your aerial, then i’m gonna bust your h+rn!
i don’t like what you’re broadcastin’ anyhow
your program’s gettin’ stale, it’s full of static now
and you know your mamma’s got an awful powerful set
and there ain’t nothin’ noways that your mamma can’t get

[chorus]
i’ve got a strong suspicion that you will not last
you’re wearin’ out your storage batteries mighty fast
so loud+speakin’ papa, you better speak easy to
you better speak easy to me!
