ma rainey - shave 'em dry blues lyrics

Loading...

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
