Текст песни Lock and Key - Bessie Smith

I can see that you and me will have a terrible fallin' out
No-one at the barbers' ball will know what it's all about
They'll hear a shot, and see you duck, and when the smoke has cleared away
Then the band will crawl from behind the stand, and then you'll hear me say

When I get home I'm gonna change my lock and key
When you get home you'll find an awful change in me
If I don't change my mind, another thing you will find
That your baby maybe has got another baby on the pullman line

You did your stuff, so get yourself another home
I said it long enough, so pack your little trunk and roam
I used to love you once, but you took and made a fool out on me
'Cause when I get home I'm gonna change this old lock and key

Take off that suit, I bought you
Gimme that hat, and that red vest too
Take off my watch, gimme my ring
I want them shoes and everything
You just got to be the latest squeeze
Well let 'em squeeze you in your PVD's
If you say much I'll shoot them all
I'll shoot them all if I hear you call

'Cause when I get home, I'm gonna change my lock and key
When you get home, you'll find place where home used to be
And if I don't change my mind, another thing you will find
That your baby maybe, has got another baby, just as good and kind

You cheated on me, and that's a thing that made me sore
I'll change that key, I'll get myself another door
As far as my concern, you're a gypsy, homeless as a flea
'Cause when I get home I'm gonna change my lock and key
Believe me
