Blue Yodel No. 11 (Alternate Take)
I've got a girl
I give her presents by the score
I've got a girl
I give her presents by the score
No matter how many presents I give her
She's always wanting more
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
Now looka here, baby
You sure don't treat me fair
Looka here, honey
You sure don't treat me fair
'Cause the presents you want
Would break a multi-millionaire
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
You want pearls and diamonds
A fur coat made of seal
You want pearls and diamonds
A fur coat made of seal
I bought you everything you want
Now you want an automobile
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
I believe to my soul
Somebody's been ridin' my mule
I believe to my soul
Somebody's been ridin' my mule
'Cause every time I want to ride
She act such a doggone fool
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
You may call yourself the meanest girl in town
You may call yourself the meanest girl in town
That's the truth, honey
Let me tell you, baby
I'm gonna turn your damper down
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
Listen here, sweet mama
This is all I have to say
Listen here, sweet mama
This is all I have to say, that's all
You know you can leave
But you'll miss your daddy someday
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
I give her presents by the score
I've got a girl
I give her presents by the score
No matter how many presents I give her
She's always wanting more
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
Now looka here, baby
You sure don't treat me fair
Looka here, honey
You sure don't treat me fair
'Cause the presents you want
Would break a multi-millionaire
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
You want pearls and diamonds
A fur coat made of seal
You want pearls and diamonds
A fur coat made of seal
I bought you everything you want
Now you want an automobile
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
I believe to my soul
Somebody's been ridin' my mule
I believe to my soul
Somebody's been ridin' my mule
'Cause every time I want to ride
She act such a doggone fool
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
You may call yourself the meanest girl in town
You may call yourself the meanest girl in town
That's the truth, honey
Let me tell you, baby
I'm gonna turn your damper down
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
Listen here, sweet mama
This is all I have to say
Listen here, sweet mama
This is all I have to say, that's all
You know you can leave
But you'll miss your daddy someday
Yodel-lay-ay-ay
