lyrics

I've got a story to tell you Honey ain't it just too bad
I've got a story to tell you Honey ain't it just too bad
Won't you come a little closer let me tell about a dream I had
I saw a big time rounder hanging around my baby's bed
I saw a big time rounder hanging around my baby's bed
If I have to shoot that rounder Honey ain't it just too bad

Tell me pretty mama why you fool around with him
I said now tell me Pretty Mama why you fool around with him
If I have to tell your Papa it'll be to bad now Jim
I'm gonna take my razor cut you from ear to ear
I'm gonna take my razor cut you from ear to ear
So when that rounder call you Honey then you can't hear

I'm going down to the river gonna jump over so brave and bold
I'm going down to the river gonna jump over so brave and bold
Well I don't mind drowning but the water sure is cold
Said it ain't no use in worrying Honey about the time that you had
Said it ain't no use in worrying Honey about the time that you had
If you had lots of trouble then Honey ain't it just too bad
