Lonnie Johnson Lyrics
"You Done Me Wrong (1947)"

You done me wrong, but you won't do that no more.
You done me wrong, but you won't do that no more.
Before I take anymore of your doggin', I'll shake hands in there too.

When I get the blues, drinkin' don't do no good at all.
When I get the blues, drinkin' don't do no good at all.
You used to come home at midnight mama, now you don't come home at all.

I ain't goin' ta even call you, don't won't the mailman to bring no mail.
I ain't goin' even call you, mailman better not bring no mail.
I'm goin' to get me another woman, I'm tired of listenin' at your fairy tales.

I believe you been smokin' reefer, else you been usin' cocaine.
I believe you been smokin' reefer, mama, else you been usin' cocaine.
If you want somebody to mistreat darlin', you better go get yourself another man.

I've got a gal workin' in this laundry, one in a grocery store.
One up and down this street, she ain't got change in clothes.

Someday when you passin', please knock on my door.
You better act like you mean me good, baby,
Hoo, well, baby, 'cause else you can't come back no more.
