lyrics

I may not be like Bessie Smith
But you don't know who you're messing with
Bathing my troubles in bathtub gin
I'll be singing the blues til the clouds roll in

I've lived a lie too many a year
Crying all night, I've run out of tears
I've been swimming in the deep end of the pool
I might have drowned but I made up my own rules

You talk about my sweet loving
All my kissing
You play around boy you don't know what you're missing
'Cuz I've got that something that you need
Have you grown tired of me lover?
Searching around, looking for another lover
But you won't find someone like me in somebody new

You talk about my sweet loving
All my kissing
You play around boy you don't know what you're missing
'Cuz I've got that something that you need
Have you grown tired of me lover?
Searching around, looking for another lover
But you won't find someone like me in somebody new
Yes, it's true!
'Cuz I've got that something that you need!
