|
I've got the meanest man in the land |
|
But his love is that sticking brand |
|
His kiss just lingers on my lips |
|
And thrill me to my fingertips |
|
People say I'm a fool |
|
He's heartless and also cruel |
|
But outside of that, he's all right with me |
|
Outside of that, he's sweet as he can be |
|
I love him as true as stars above |
|
He beats me up, but how he can love |
|
I never loved like that since the day I was born |
|
I said for fun, I don't want you no more |
|
And when I said that, I made sweet papa sore |
|
He blacked my eyes, I couldn't see |
|
Then he pawned the things he gave to me |
|
But outside of that, he's all right with me |
|
I said for fun, I don't want you no more |
|
And when I said that, I made sweet papa sore |
|
When he pawned my things I said: you're a dirty old thief |
|
Now, then he turned around and knocks out both of my teeth |
|
Outside of that, he's all right with me |
