Lyrics for Song: Why Women Go Wrong (1938)
Lyrics for Album: Complete Recorded Works 1937-47, Vol. 1-(1937-40) [1992]
Man, the reason why, so many women has done gone wrong.
The reason why, so many good women 's done gone wrong.
Just tryin' to find the love and happiness, that theys don't get at home.
You can take your wife and put her in a palace, can dress her with diamonds on down.
You can take your wife and put her in a palace, dress her with diamonds on down.
But when the cat is always away, the mice is bound to play around.
If you men want a real happy home, please take my advice.
If you want a real happy home, then please take my advice.
Furnish your home with the love it needs, and don't chase your best friend's wife.
You can put your queen bee in a palace, you can put her up on a throne.
You can take your queen bee an' put her in a palace, you can put her up on a throne.
But what good is a queen bee, when the king bee is forever gone?
Life can be so sweet, if you just will understand.
Life can be so sweet, if you just will understand.
What do 'ra woman needs me for the husband, when she's chasin' some other man?
