Текст песни You've Been a Good Old Wagon - Bessie Smith

Looka here, Daddy, I want to tell you, please get out of my sight
I'm playin' quits now, right from this very night
You've had your day, don't sit around and frown
You've been a good old wagon, Daddy, but you done broke down

Now, you'd better go the blacksmith shop and get yourself overhauled
There's nothing about you to make a good woman fall
Nobody wants a baby when a real man can be found
You've been a good old wagon, honey, but you done broke down

When the sun is shinin', it's time to make hay
Automobiles operate, you can't make that wagon pay
When you were in your prime, you love to run around
You've been a good old wagon, honey, but you done broke down

There's no need to cry and make a big show
This man has taught me more about lovin' than you will ever know
He is the king of lovin', this man deserves a crown
He is a good old wagon, Daddy, and he ain't broke down
