Well I'm going down the road
Stop in Fanny Mays
Gonna tell Fanny what I heard her boyfriend say
Don't start me talkin'
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna break up this signifyin'
'Cause somebody's got go
Jack gave his wife two dollars
To go downtown to get some market
Gets out on the street
Ol' George stops her
He knocked her down
And blackened her eye
She gets back home and tells her husband a lie
Don't start me talkin'
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna break up this signifyin'
'Cause somebody's got go
She borrowed some money
To go to the beauty shop
She honked his horn
She beegan to start
Said take me bay 'round the block
I'm going to the beauty shop
To have my hair socked
Don't start me talkin'
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna break up this signifyin'
'Cause somebody's got go
