paroles de chanson I Ain't Goin' to Play Second Fiddle - Bessie Smith

Let me tell you daddy
Momma ain't gonna sit here and grieve
Pack up your stuff and get ready to leave
I stood your foolishness long enough
So now I'm gonna call your bluff
For certain things I'm gonna call your hand
So, now daddy here's my plan

Ain't gonna play no second fiddle 'cause
I'm used to playin' lead

You must think that I am blind
You've been cheatin' me all the time
Whoa yeah, you still flirt
And you'll notice I ain't hurt
To see you with my chum
Do you think that I am dumb?

You cause me to drink
When I sit down and think
And see that you never take heed
I'd gone to your house the other night
Caught you and your good girl havin' a fight

Ain't gonna play no second fiddle 'cause
I'm used to playin' lead

I caught you with your good-time tramp
So, now, poppa, I'm gonna put out your lamp
And, poppa, I ain't sore
You ain't gonna mess up with me no more
I'm gonna flirt with another cheek
Then you're gonna hang your head and weep

Ain't gonna play no second fiddle 'cause
I'm used to playin' lead
