My Four Reasons
03:04
|
|||
|
You know I hate a gal who’s full of “Nos”, hits the junk and uses joe
Why that’s one of my four reasons
Who rolls her own below her knees, and flirts with those who she please
Why that’s two of my four reasons
And when she uses garlic, eats Limburger cheese
Why I get a weakness down below my knees
Now folks I told you this, my mind’s at ease
Why that’s all of my four reasons

If I let you get away with it once it happens all the time
If you think I'm going craze bout you you better change your mind
you found a good man who wouldn't cheat any more
now half a dozen keys fit in my back door
if I let you get away with it once it happens all the time
And i know it, it happens all the time
If I let you get away with it once it happens all the time
If you think I'm going craze bout you Darlin change your mind
I thought you to be a better gal then that
butt what I saw you doing was really tight like that
if I let you get away with it once it happens all the time
And i know it, it happens all the time

Corina Corina where you bin so long
Tell me Corina where you bin so long
There hasn’t bin no lovin since you bin gone.
Corina Corina where’d you stay last night
Corina Corina where’d you stay last night
You come home this morning the sun was shining bright.
I met Corina way across that sea
I met Corina way across that sea
She wouldn’t write me no letter she didn’t care about me.
Corina Corina what you gonna do
Corina Corina what you gonna do
Just a little bit of lovin and let your heart be true.
Corina Corina dear pal of mine
Corina Corina dear pal of mine
Now you left me walkin tears rollin down and cryin.
If you see Corina tell her to hurry home
If you see Corina tell her to hurry home
There hasn’t bin no lovin since you bin gone.
Tell me Corina what’s the matter now
Tell me Corina what’s the matter now
You didn’t write me no letter you didn’t love me no how.
Goodbye Corina now you fare so well
Goodbye Corina now I declare you well
When I get back here can’t anyone tell.

You Was Born To Die

Don't want no woman
That run around
Stay out in the street
And like a badfoot clown
You made me love you
And you made me cry
You should remember, that you were born to die...
The stream are yellow
Tossed it black and brown
I got me a woman
Used to be the woman in town
You made me love you
And you made me cry
You should remember, that you were born to die...
I'm home at morning
Face full of frown
I know about that baby
You been running around
You made me love you
And you made me cry
You should remember, that you were born to die...
Now look here woman
Give me your right hand
I thought you my woman
You go to your man
You made me love you
And you made me cry
You should remember, that you were born to die...

Oh momma now when you get to Memphis you won't find me there
I got the stove pipe blues and I can't be satisfied

When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
Well the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Adam said to Eve you just won't wait
'Til I get out of this garden gate
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
Well the leaves started fallin'
The snake start to crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam if you care for me
You will eat this fruit from the forbidden tree
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
Well the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
Eve said to Adam sleep in the crib
Adam said to Eve I'll give ya a piece of my rib
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
Surely musta shook that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
They musta shook that thing
Well the leaves started fallin'
The snake started crawlin'
He musta give her a diamond ring
They one named Abel another named Kane
it goes to show they was shaking that thing
When Adam and Eve was in the Garden of Eden
Surely musta shook that thing
well oh yeah
Surely musta shook that thing

Egyptian Ella
03:25
|

|
So if you hear of a gal who can quake and shake
Till it makes you think of a nervous snake
They're speakin' of Egyptian Ella
She weighs two-twenty but that's O.K.
They like 'em plenty down there that way
She has the love of every fella
And when she shakes and when she starts
Down by the River Nile
The boys all take their old sweet-hearts
And throw them to the crocodiles
And every sheik in the audience
Jumps up and yells that "She's immense!"
They're cheering for Egyptian Ella.
