paroles de chanson Long Skirt Baby Blues - T-Bone Walker

This is a mean old world
Baby to live in by yourself
This is a mean old world
Baby to live in by yourself
Can't get the woman you love
Cause you know she's lovin' someone else

Well I drink to keep from worryin
Baby and I smile to keep from cryin'
Yes I drink to keep from worryin
And you know I smile to keep from cryin
That's to keep the public from knowin'
Just what I have on my mind
When I first met you, baby, you were a real gone chick
When I first met you, baby, you were a real gone chick
Now you've let your skirt down 'n' you know that ain't the lick

You better wake up, baby 'n' change your antique ways
You better wake up, baby 'n' change your antique ways
Instead of advancin', baby, you're goin' back to horse and buggy days

You said the style is changin', I don't know why I should laugh or cry
You said the style is changin', I don't know if I should laugh or cry
You've been wearin' long skirts, baby, you don't know the reason why

Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Well, ain't no long skirt, baby, gonna be no gal a-mine
