Long Skirt Baby 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.
When I first met you baby, you were a real gone chick
When I first met you baby, you were a real gone chick
Now you've let your skirt down 'n you know that ain't
the lick
You better wake up baby n' change your antique ways
You better wake up baby n' change your antique ways
Instead of advancin' baby, you're goin back to horse
and buggy days
You said the style is changin', I don't know why I
should laugh or cry
You said the style is changin' I don't know if I
should laugh or cry
You've been wearin' long skirts baby, you don't know
the reason why
Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Well ain't no long skirt baby, gonna be no gal a-mine
