Daddy-O (Live)

Now one of those boy and girl accommodations
The girl, Dixie Crawford
The boy, Louis Jordan
The tune, Daddy-O

Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some blues
From now on, that's all you'll be able to use
Hear me, Daddy-O, I'm gonna teach you some blues
However you wanted it, I sang your song
Whenever you wanted me, I tagged along
But that lipstick on your shirt is mine
So I'm getting off, it's the end of the line
Do you hear me, Daddy-O? I'm gonna teach you some blues

Mama-O, how can you say that to me?
Do you hear me, Mama-O? I'm sweet as a sweet man can be
Do you hear me, Mama-O? How can you say that to me?
You wanted a diamond ring, a Cadillac
You got 'em, but Mama-O, I want 'em back
If I have to take a brush off from you
I'm gonna take my war bonds too
Do you hear me, Mama-O? I'm gonna teach you some blues

You told me that a woman was your religion
But I didn't hear you mention that you meant them all
So you can just consider you a dead pigeon
'Cause I gotta be the only filly in your stall

A lot of fish are waiting 'round and want a nibble
And your baby's got a line that they can overload

Daddy-O, I'm hardly in a mood to quibble
So you'll make me very happy if you hit the road
You gave me the runaround and that was wrong
You wanted to run around, so run along
If we never meet again, it's too soon

And I'll make a bet, you'll be changing your tune
Do you hear me, Daddy-O? I'm gonna teach you some blues

Hey, honey, put my shoes back under the bed
Don't set my trunk out in the hall
Woman, are you losing your mind?
