Cool Cool Daddy

I had a doggone, a low-down trifling man
I had a doggone, a low-down trifling man
Well, I got the blues so bad, I could feel 'em in my hand

Now, when I was in the mood, he knew I was down
I'd be in the mood for lovin' and he'd know I was down
And when the ship is in harbor, there's not a soul around

Well, he knew it was funny 'cause mama, he was happy time
Well, he knew it was funny 'cause mama, he was happy time
And he kept on stumblin', grumblin'
, And he couldn't put me in his time

Well, he was tumblin' around, he didn't know when to stop
Couldn't pay our rent and I was raggedy as a mop

But I got a new daddy and I'm happy as I can be
He is a cool cat, my man, he sure is good to me
He only goes to work every mornin', calls me at noon
Comes home every night, we have a really funny moon
I got me a new daddy, ooh, a cool cat, my mama
A cool cat, my man, he sure is good to me

Now, I wouldn't trade my new daddy for a bag of gold
No, I wouldn't trade my new daddy for a bag of gold
I got a cool cat, my man, he satisfies my soul

Well, I'm tellin' you, mama, I'm happy in my man
I'm happy, tellin' you, mama, I'm happy in my man
He's a cool cat, my man, he satisfies my soul
