Big Bill Broonzy - Baby, I Done Got Wise lyrics

rate me

A gypsy told mother to let them women be,

she said, "A man's your best friend",

I said, "Are you tellin' me?"

'Cause I done got wise now,

oh, to the way these women do

Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me baby,

now the trick's done turned on you

I don't know whether my woman was joking or what she intends to do,

but I done pulled the right card 'n' I done got tattooed

I done got wise,

oh, to the way these women do

Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby,

now the trick's done turned on you

If there's forty-eight cards in the deck,

I can play with the men

'Cause I done got wise, baby,

oh, to the way you women do

Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby

now the trick's done turned on you

I been married three times

I was drunk as I could be

'Cause I done got wise, baby,

oh, to the way you women do

Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby

now the trick's done turned on you
