Good Woman Blues (1934)

I’ve got to get these woman taught
I’ve gotta tell them a thing or two
So they know what I’m talkin’ about

[Verse 1]
Women if you got a good man
Give him three good meals every day
Women if you got a good man
Give him three good meals every day
If you don't, some other woman
Is gonna tow your man away

[Verse 2]
I've got so many women that I don't care when one dies
I've got so many women that I don't care when one dies
I don't even weep, I don't even cry

[Verse 3]
Some men crave high yellow but give me black or brown
Some men crave high yellow but give me black or brown
Cos I can't tell the difference when the sun goes down

[Verse 4]
Blacker the berry, sweeter is the juice
Blacker the berry, sweeter is the juice
I got a good black woman and I ain't going to turn her loose

[Verse 5]
They say black is evil and they don't mean you no good
(You wouldn’t kid me, would ya?)
They say black is evil and they don't mean you no good
(It’s a killer)
But I would not quit my black woman, baby, if I could

[Verse 6]
I've got a good black gal, I've got a good black gal
Well I've got a good black gal, I've got a good black gal
She's my buddy and I swear she is my pal

Yeah man
