Ernestine
Ernestine, you'd better leave my man alone, ernestine, because of you i can't go on,
I told you for the last time,
To find you a man of you own.
Ernestine, what you doing, you know it ain't right,
Ernestine, when you play, it make me wanna fight,
Girl you playin with danger,
And girl, this might take, it might.
Chorus
Riff/ i warned yo/u once
Riff/ girl without a/ doubt
Riff/ 2 strikes yo/u lose
Riff/ third strike you'/re out
Riff/ like a base/ball game
Riff/ you dancin wi/th a slugger
Riff/ i hit a grand/ slam,
Cause i'm a bad mmam duck
Ernestine, you'd better leave my man alone
I told you for the last time,
To find you a man of your own.
Solo (like vs)
Ernestine, you playin with fire, you know you'll burn
Ernestine, i know, where you come from
You refuse to listen,
But you ain't in the right school to learn.
Chorus
Ernestine, you'd better leave my man alone,
I told you for the last time, to find/ you a man of you own.
I told you for the last time,
To find you a man of you own.
Ernestine, what you doing, you know it ain't right,
Ernestine, when you play, it make me wanna fight,
Girl you playin with danger,
And girl, this might take, it might.
Chorus
Riff/ i warned yo/u once
Riff/ girl without a/ doubt
Riff/ 2 strikes yo/u lose
Riff/ third strike you'/re out
Riff/ like a base/ball game
Riff/ you dancin wi/th a slugger
Riff/ i hit a grand/ slam,
Cause i'm a bad mmam duck
Ernestine, you'd better leave my man alone
I told you for the last time,
To find you a man of your own.
Solo (like vs)
Ernestine, you playin with fire, you know you'll burn
Ernestine, i know, where you come from
You refuse to listen,
But you ain't in the right school to learn.
Chorus
Ernestine, you'd better leave my man alone,
I told you for the last time, to find/ you a man of you own.
