Heah Me Talkin' To You
Louis Armstrong · Other Songs - Louis Armstrong
I'm going to ramble back to my used-to-be
Aww, you hear me talkin' to ya
I don't bite my tongue
You wanna be my man?
You gotta fetch it with you when you come
Eve and Adam in a garden takin' a chance
Adam didn't take time to get his pants
Aww, you hear me talkin' to ya
I don't bite my tongue
You wanna be my man?
You gotta fetch it with ya when you come
I don't care whether they're old or young
When the chips were down, they have trouble along
I guess you hear me talkin' to ya
I don't bite my tongue
You wanna be my man?
You gotta fetch it with ya when you come
Hello sayin' true give me 6 0 9
What takes gettin' in these
His or mine?
Hear me talkin' to ya
I don't bite my tongue
You wanna be my man?
You gotta fetch it with you when you come
