Sorrowful Blues
If you catch me stealing, I don't mean no harm
If you catch me stealing, I don't mean no harm
It's a mark in my family, and it must be carrying on
I got 19 men and won't want more
I got 19 men and won't want more
If I get that one more, I'd let that 19 go
I'm gonna tell you, daddy, like Solomon told the Jew
I'm gonna tell you, daddy, like Solomon told the Jew
If you don't like me, me too don't like you
It's hard to love another woman's man
It's hard to love another woman's man
You can get him when you want him, you got to catch him when you can
Have you ever seen peaches grow on sweet potato vine?
Have you ever seen peaches grow on sweet potato vine?
Just step in my backyard and take a peep at mine
If you catch me stealing, I don't mean no harm
It's a mark in my family, and it must be carrying on
I got 19 men and won't want more
I got 19 men and won't want more
If I get that one more, I'd let that 19 go
I'm gonna tell you, daddy, like Solomon told the Jew
I'm gonna tell you, daddy, like Solomon told the Jew
If you don't like me, me too don't like you
It's hard to love another woman's man
It's hard to love another woman's man
You can get him when you want him, you got to catch him when you can
Have you ever seen peaches grow on sweet potato vine?
Have you ever seen peaches grow on sweet potato vine?
Just step in my backyard and take a peep at mine
