(instrumental intro)

Well, I got somethin' to tell ya

Baby, you can't do

You can't love me

And some other man, too

'Cause you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

Now, you's a old lady

Babe, an you don't know how you do

Well, I give you my money

You left me cold in hand

You're takin' my money

An give it to your other man

But you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

You don't know exactly how you do

'Well, sing it Maceo'

(harmonica & instrumental)

Now, you promised me a car

You know, an a diamond ring

You bought my clothes

You couldn't understand

'Cause you was a old lady

Know you was a old lady

You was a old lady

You didn't know exactly how do you do

You said, when you look at my face

You love me mo' an mo'

I could love you, too

But I just won't tell you, so

'Cause you's a old lady

'Cause you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

And you don't know exactly how you do

(harmonica & instrumental)

Well, you put out my dress, I bought you

You put off my stockin's, too

You's so funny, I can no wonder

You don't know exactly how to do

'Cause you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

You don't know exactly how you do

(harmonica & instrumental)

Now, an I got some'in to tell ya

Know soon, you 'llow me a-change

I don't want you, find yourself another man

'Cause you's a old lady

'Cause you's a old lady

Know you's a old lady

You don't know exactly how to do.
