Dinah Washington Wise Women Blues Lyrics

Wise Women Blues Lyrics

Now let me tell you, baby, [Incomprehensible]

Yes, let me tell you, baby, [Incomprehensible]

Don't forget pretty daddy

That this world is full of old men



I'm not going to be your servant

I told you time and time again

No, I'm not going to be your servant

I told you time and time again



Try to find yourself another woman

'Cause I've got myself another man



So leave me alone, baby

You're not going to worry my mind

Yes, leave me alone, baby

You're not going to worry my mind



Before I keep you, papa

I'll take any kind of man I can find



You had me once, daddy

You could have kept me all to yourself

Yes, you had me once, daddy

You could have kept me all to yourself



But now I'm sorry, baby

I belong to somebody else
