Lyrics for Song: She Don't Know Who She Wants (1930)
Lyrics for Album: Complete Recorded Works 1925-32, Vol. 6-(1930-31) [1991]
You went away with that man, now what did he do for you?
You went away with that man, now what did he do for you?
After he broke up your happy home he did just like other men would do
But poor little me, I worked for you just like a slave.
But poor little me, I worked for you just like a slave.
You couldn't find nothin' to quit me for, you tried to put me in my lonesome grave.
Baby I give you my love, I give you my silver and gold.
I give you my love, I give you my silver and gold.
And I don't see how you could try an' destroy my soul.
I give you money to waste when I needed shoes on my feet.
I give you money to waste when I needed shoes on my feet.
Now how could you have the heart baby, to run away from me?
Its true I love you babe, but your heart is like a piece of iron.
Its true I love you baby, but your heart is like a piece of iron.
I believe if your mother was dyin, you would be laughin' when you should be cryin'.
