paroles de chanson Do Your Duty - 78rpm Version - Bessie Smith

If I call three times a day, baby
Come and drive my blues away
When you come, be ready to play
Do your duty

If you want to have some luck
Give your baby your last buck
Don't come quackin' like a duck
Do your duty

I heard you say you didn't love me, baby
Yesterday at Mrs. Brown's
I don't believe a word she said
She's the loudest woman in town, oh babe

When I need attention at home
I'll just call you on the telephone
Come yourself, don't send your friend Jones
Do your duty

If my radiator gets too hot
Cool it off in a lots of spot
Give me all the service you've got
Do your duty

If you don't know what it's all about
Don't stand around my house and pout
Do you catch your mama kippin' out
Do your duty

As you make your own bad heart
That's the way love
You bunk out, I'm sleepin' by myself
You're too dumb to realise, oh babe

I'm not tryin' to make you feel blue
I'm not satisfied with the way that you do
I've got to help you find somebody to
Do your duty
