Mezz Mezzrow - The Ultimate Jazz Archive 6 (3 Of 4)

My Man Jumped Salty On Me

Goin' down to the river, take a rope and a rock
Tie it round my neck and jump off the dock
'Cause my man he jumped salty on me

Ain't no one can change my mind
I've been mistreated and I don't mind dyin'
'Cause that man jumped salty on me

Gonna get me some poison, kill myself
'Cause the man I love has put me on the shelf
The dirty old viper jumped salty on me
If he didn't want me he didn't have to lie
The day I see him, that's the day he'll die
'Cause that man jumped salty on me

Baby you don't know my mind
Lord, Lord, Lord, Baby you don't know my mind
When you see me laughin', I'm laughin' just to keep from cryin'

A crooked man's worse than crooked dice
With dice you lose your money, with men you lose your life
Oh that fool jumped salty on me
I'm gonna get me a razor and a gun
Cut him if he stands still, shoot him if he runs
'Cause that man jumped salty on me
