Married Man Blues
Crazy 'bout a married man
But I'm scared to call his name
Yes, I'm crazy 'bout a married man
But I'm scared to call his name
I can't get him when I want him
Ain't that a low-down dirty shame?
Now, he loves me, he pets me
And he swears he wants me for himself
Yes, that man loves me, he pets me
And swears he wants me for himself
Then he goes right around the corner
Tells that same lie to somebody else
Ain't that just like a man?
Now, gee, but I'm lonesome
'Cause I'm sleeping by myself
Yes, I said, "Don't you girls feel lonesome
When you're sleeping by yourself
And you know the one you love
Is sleeping with somebody else?"
Now, some girls crave high yellows
But I'll take my blacks and browns
'Cause you can't tell the difference when the sun goes down
That's the truth, baby
I'll declare, I wouldn't lie
But if I don't love my baby
Gee, I hope to die
But I'm scared to call his name
Yes, I'm crazy 'bout a married man
But I'm scared to call his name
I can't get him when I want him
Ain't that a low-down dirty shame?
Now, he loves me, he pets me
And he swears he wants me for himself
Yes, that man loves me, he pets me
And swears he wants me for himself
Then he goes right around the corner
Tells that same lie to somebody else
Ain't that just like a man?
Now, gee, but I'm lonesome
'Cause I'm sleeping by myself
Yes, I said, "Don't you girls feel lonesome
When you're sleeping by yourself
And you know the one you love
Is sleeping with somebody else?"
Now, some girls crave high yellows
But I'll take my blacks and browns
'Cause you can't tell the difference when the sun goes down
That's the truth, baby
I'll declare, I wouldn't lie
But if I don't love my baby
Gee, I hope to die
