I looked through every barroom And I searched from coast to coast You were scarce as low-cost housing Baby when I needed you most
And where were you baby, when my heart went out? You left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt
Now I peeked through fancy boudoirs And I peeked through window grates I only saw Republicans, romancing Southern states
And where were you baby, when my heart went out? You left me ba___by, in all this darkness and doubt
Now I tried to replace you with a streetwalker named Desire But prices up so high, hell I couldn't afford to try her It takes you my baby, baby, baby — to put my body out You left me baby, in all___ this darkness and doubt
But tonight I think I'm gonna take some good advice
I'm gonna look around and find somebody that's a really nice Well perhaps a banker's daughter and if her Papa's a cuss Well I hope to do to her what her Papa does to us
And we'll have fancy shack and a fancy Cadillac And she'll be studying to be, a nymphomaniac And we'll have a little rye and we'll play a little gin We'll have another rye and we'll play another gin
And then we'll have another rye just to get a little glow Have another rye just to make the conversation flow And then we'll have another rye and we'll play a little gin We'll have another rye and we'll tune some music in
And then we'll have another gin.... and we'll play a little rye... And we'll suddenly realize that we're getting kind of high And so we'll turn the lights down low...... to keep the bulbs from getting hot
And we'll play a little game called .. "Yes?"...."No!" ... Why not?
But tonight I think I'm gonna find me something swell So I can wake up in the morning... miserable as hell
Now when butter costs a dollar, bread costs more than cake Come back soon cause, babe, think of what a gal like you could make Yes come back baby, baby, baby — don't ever say that we're through Cos this time, pretty baby.. I'd like to walk right out on you!Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
