paroles de chanson Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby - Joe Williams

(JW:)
I got a gal who′s always late
Any time we have a date
But I love her
Yes, I love her

I'm gonna walk up to her gate
To see if I can get it straight
′Cause I want her
I'm gonna ask her

Is you is or is you ain't my baby
The way you′re acting lately makes me doubt

(MS:)
I am still your baby, baby, baby
Oh, but it seems my flame in your heart done gone out

(JW:)
A woman is a creature that has always been strange
Just when you think you′re sure of one
She's gone and made a change

(MS:)
Is you is or is you ain′t my baby
Maybe, maybe baby's found somebody new

(Both:)
Or is my baby still my baby true

(MS spoken:)
Now listen, I wanna know what the real deal be.
I mean, talk to me.

(Joe spoken:)
Rap on, baby, rap on, rap on.

(MS spoken:)
Tell me what happened.
I mean, who was that woman I saw you with last night?
And don′t you tell me there wasn't no woman. I know it, I know it.

(JW spoken:)
Listen, Marlena. Let me tell you this one time.
If there is anything going on anywhere that is more fun than it is here, I will be there.
And I am here.

(MS spoken:)
You tellin′ me the truth?

(JW spoken:)
I'm here with you, y'understand?

(MS spoken:)
I don′t know about that.
I don′t know about that.

(JW spoken:)
Rap on, baby

(MS:)
Well, I got a guy, always late
And anytime we have a date
Oh, but I love him
Yes, I love him

Now, I am gonna walk up to his gate
Shake my finger and just try to get it straight
'Cause I need him
And I surely am gonna ask him

Now, is you is or is you ain′t my baby
The way that you're acting lately makes me doubt

(JW:)
You are still my baby, baby
It seems that my flame in your heart done gone out

(MS:)
I know one thing, a man is just a creature who has always been strange
Just when you think that you′re sure of one
Look out, he done made a change

(JW:)
Is you is or is you ain't my baby
Or is my baby found somebody new

(Both:)
Or is my baby still my baby true

(MS spoken:)
I don′t know.
I don't know.
It sound kinda sweet, but are you telling me the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

[JW scat]

(MS spoken:)
Oh, your story's touching.
Your story′s touching.
