Lyrics That's Gratitude - Martha Tilton

He got her a good job, a fine position
Let her support him while he went fishin'
Things that he did to be a perfect mate
She just didn't appreciate

That's gratitude, gratitude
She had a most peculiar attitude
He liked her longitude, her latitude
But he didn't like her gratitude

He took her to Woolworth's to buy a necklace
It was her birthday, and he felt reckless
I don't know why she had to get so mad
After all, did he treat her bad?

That's gratitude, gratitude
She had a most peculiar attitude
He liked her longitude, her latitude
But he didn't like her gratitude

(Gratitude, gratitude
A most amazing attitude
I liked her longitude, her latitude
But I didn't like her gratitude)

He gave her a dollar to buy a gown with
He gave her a paintbrush to paint the town with
"Have a good time," he whispered in her ear
What she answered was censored here

That's gratitude, gratitude
She had a most peculiar attitude
He liked her longitude, her latitude
But he didn't like her gratitude

He didn't like her gratitude

Isn't that just like a man?
