He May Be Your Man (But He Comes To Me See Sometimes) (1922 Version)

[Verse]
Miss Minnie Lee, from Tennessee
Was known to be quite rough
Anytime and anywhere
She would always strut her stuff
Now Sadie Snow, she had a beau
She loved him night and day
Until Minnie shook her shimmy
And stole his heart away
Poor Sadie nearly died but Minnie only sighed
This is what she said:

[Chorus]
He may be your man but he comes to see me sometimes
And when he's with you, he's always got me on his mind
I ain't no vampire, that is true
But I can certainly take your man from you
My wicked smile, my wicked walk
Child, I've got those kind of eyes that seem to talk
There's no use of cryin', it ain't no use to weep and mourn
I love your man and I'm gonna take him for my own, I said my own
Now I don't mean to be so bold
But I just want to get you told
I say he may be your man but he comes to see me sometimes

[Chorus]
Now he may be your man but he comes to see me sometimes
And when he's with you, he's always got me on his mind
I ain't no vampire, that is true
But I can certainly take your man from you
My wicked smile, my wicked walk
Child, I've got those kind of eyes that seem to talk
There's no use of cryin', it ain't no use to weep and mourn
I love your man and I'm gonna take him for my own, I said my own
Get away from my window, you [ain't a-treat me no?] good
I've got me another brownskin to chop up my wood
Now he may be your man but he comes to see me sometimes
