Lyrics Messy Bessy - Louis Jordan
Now
I'm
a
very
conservative
fella,
And
I
don't
go
in
for
displays
of
emotion,
But
I'm
in
love
with
a
chick
named
Bessy,
And
she
cuts
up
whenever
she
takes
the
notion.
Now
she
ain't
high
class
like
I
am,
So
sometimes
she
gets
carried
away,
And
that's
when
she
starts
to
goofin'
up,
And
this
is
what
you'll
hear
me
say:
Don't
get
messy,
Bessy,
Keep
your
whiskey
quiet,
When
you
had
a
couple
of
drinks,
woman,
You
just
might
start
a
riot,
Don't
get
messy,
Bessy,
You
know
what
I'm
talking
about,
When
your
love
comes
a
tumblin'
down,
You
wear
a
good
man
out.
Now
when
that
whiskey
moves
you,
You
start
snappin'
your
fingers,
And
shoutin'
out
loud,
You
start
shakin'
an'
quakin',
An'
whoopin'
an
hollerin',
You
talk
so
loud
you
draw
a
crowd,
So
don't
get
messy,
Bessy,
Try
to
play
it
cool,
Coz
you
just
wait
til
I
get
you
home
mama,
And
I'll
get
messy
too.
Now
when
that
whiskey
moves
you,
You
start
snappin'
your
fingers,
And
shoutin'
out
loud,
You
start
shakin'
an'
quakin',
An'
whoopin'
an
hollerin',
You
talk
so
loud
you
draw
a
crowd.
Now
don't
get
messy,
Bessy,
Try
to
play
it
cool,
Coz
you
wait
til
I
get
you
home
mama,
And
I'll
get
messy
too.
One
more
time,
You
just
wait
till
I
get
you
home
mama,
And
I'll
get
messy
too.
Say
you
just
wait
till
I
get
you
home
mama,
And
I'll
get
messy
too.
You
better
straighten
up
and
fly
right
woman!
