ma rainey - shave 'em dry blues lyrics
there’s one thing i don’t understand
why a good+looking woman likes a workin’ man
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
goin’ away to where you’re off my mind
you keep me hungry and broke, daddy, all the time
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
don’t see how the hungry women can sleep
they shimmies all day without a bite to eat
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
goin’ downtown to spread the news
state street women wearin’ brogan shoes
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
if it wasn’t for their powder and their store+bought hair
state street gals couldn’t go nowhere
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
there’s one thing i can’t understand
some women drivin’ state street like a man
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
went to the show the other night
everybody on state street was tryin’ to fight
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
ain’t crazy ’bout my yellow, i ain’t wild about my brown
you can’t tell the difference when the sun goes down
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
when you see two women running hand to hand
bet your life one’s got the other’s man
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
come here, daddy, lay in my arms
when your wife comes tell her i don’t mean no harm
hey, hey, hey, daddy, let me shave ’em dry
