Lyrics He's Got Me Goin' (with James P. Johnson) [with James P. Johnson] - Bessie Smith



Don′t know what come over me
Done lost my self control
He's the sugar in my tea
The jelly in my roll
Got me goin′
He's got me goin'
But I don′t know where I′m headed for
Gee, I've got a lovin′ man
One of them handsome brutes
He's built accordin′ to that plan
Too bad when it suits
Got me goin'
He′s got me goin'
But I don't know where I′m headed for
I can′t sleep a doggone wink
Unless he's by my side
Mind′s so different I just can't think
Without my easy ride
Got me goin′
He's got me goin′
But I don't know where I'm headed for
Lay and listen to the clock
Ticks loud as a drum
Hear the crowing of a cock
Still my man ain′t come
Got me goin′
Got me goin'
But I don′t know where I'm headed for
Wouldn′t be no two-time gal
Just one man's enough
I don′t need no two men 'cause
My one man knows his stuff
Got me goin'
Got me goin′
But I don′t know where I'm headed for
Got a heart but just one man
Knows how to get to it
For he′s got the only key
That's a perfect fit
Got me goin′
He's got me goin′
But I don't know where I'm headed for
′Fraid to advertise my man
Simply scared to death
These girls just hear ′bout him
And tryin' for their selves
Got me goin′
Got me goin'
But I don′t know where I'm headed for
