Now when I was young : in my prime
*Pick these* different women : all the time
I had a woman : God her name was Lucy
God almighty devil : what that woman wouldn't do
Another woman : God her name Henrietta
Talk to six straight men : say she knows no better
Another woman : God her name was Mattie
She's a?slipping and a?stalling : in some dark alley
Another woman : God her name was Jenny
Talked to white folks black folks : she wouldn't give a 
penny
Another woman : God her name was Mae
A white man only : got every day
I knocked Mae down : I stomped in her face
Half her trouble : must have
I went to the workhouse : to work out my time
And the same doggone woman : on my mind
In time I got out : I drunk a little gin
I goed right back : to Mae's house again
By time I got in the house : getting ready to have a 
little fun
Made me come back *about* : I gotten more than one
Now let me tell you a little something : don't you 
raise no fuss
Boys these young women : want to do their stuff
From their legs and from their ankles : and on to their 
knees
*Trying to ??? devilment* : as they can be
While you're out man : trying to
She's a?winking and a?blinking : at another man
You get out at night : you peeping through a crack
I wonder how long : before my husband gets back
Your husband get back : you ready to have a little fun
Before you get out of sight : he got more than one
And now I'm getting old : Lord my head's getting grey
Lord I'm not bow?legged : but I walks that way
I *claim to see the oldest rat* : of the *barge*
I known about the women : long before I got grown
But some in the daytime : some at night
How in the world : can you treat any living man right
Any time you get out : you're ready to
Turn around and slipping down : jumping in your bed
He jumped in your bed : he begin to have a little fun
Anything you want to know : got a little *lunch* done
A little *lunch* done : from three to four
Have to *turn down* : before your old man go
You may be brownskin : you color may be black
What I say about you women : I won't take it back
I get drunk : love to have my fun
But all the darn women : got more than one
