Outside Woman Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you lose your money, great God, don't lose your mind.
If you lose your money, great God, don't lose your mind.
And if you lose your woman, please don't fool with mine.
I'm gonna buy me a bulldog, watch my lady while I sleep.
I'm gonna buy me a bulldog, watch my lady while I sleep.
'Cause women these days, so doggone crooked,
That they might make off 'fore day creep.
Well, you can't watch your wife and your outside women, too.
You know you can't watch your wife and your outside womens, too.
Cause when you're out with your women, your wife will be at home,
Cooking your food, doing a dirt, buddy what you trying to do?
You can't watch your wife and your outside womens, too.
You know you can't watch your wife and your outside women, too.
When you're out with your women, your wife will be at home,
Doing a dirt, cooking your food, buddy what you trying to do?
