Dinah Washington Lyrics
"Wise Women Blues"

Now let me tell you, baby, [Incomprehensible]

Yes, let me tell you, baby, [Incomprehensible]

Don't forget pretty daddy

That this world is full of old men

I'm not going to be your servant

I told you time and time again

No, I'm not going to be your servant

I told you time and time again

Try to find yourself another woman

'Cause I've got myself another man

So leave me alone, baby

You're not going to worry my mind

Yes, leave me alone, baby

You're not going to worry my mind

Before I keep you, papa

I'll take any kind of man I can find

You had me once, daddy

You could have kept me all to yourself

Yes, you had me once, daddy

You could have kept me all to yourself

But now I'm sorry, baby

I belong to somebody else
