歌詞

Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing to have more than one Ain't it a good thing Now when I was young gun, in my prime, six, eight different women all the time Had a woman, god, her name was Lou, Take god almighty tell you what the woman would do Another woman, god, her name Henrietta, Talk to 6,8 men, says she never knew better Another woman, god, her name was Jenny, Talk to white folks, black folks, she wouldn't 'fuse any Another woman, god, her name was Mattie, She's a-slippin' and a-dartin' into some dark alley Another woman, god, her name was Mae, A fresh man home we got every day I knocked Mae down, stomped in the face, Had my trouble 'mongst the police raid I went to work out, work out my time, Had the same doggone woman on my mind By the time I got out, lord, I drunk a little gin, I tore right back to Mae's house again By the time I got in her house she ready to have a little fun, Man, I come back about 'n' I got more than one It's a good thing Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing to have more than one, one woman Let me tell you little something, don't you raise no fuss, Most these young women won't do to trust Bow-legged from their ankles plum to their knees, Yes, 'fore they've done devilment to take in me While you're out, man, tryin' to study some plan, She's a-winkin' and a-blinkin' at another man You get out of sight, you're peepin' through the crack, I wonder how long 'fore her old man get back Her man get back he's ready to have a little fun, 'Fore you get out of sight she got more than one Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing And now I'm gettin' old, lord, my head getting' grey, Lord, I'm not bow-legged but I walk that way Claim to be the oldest rider of the barn, I've known about women long before I got grown Some in the daytime, some at night, How in the world do you treat any slavin' man right? By the time you get out you're ready to primp your head, Turn around, slippin' there, jumpin' in your bed You jump in your bed, begin to have a little fun, Next thing you want to know got a little lunch done A little lunch done from three to four, Talkin' around before your old man go You may be brownskin, your color may be black, But what I say about these women I won't take it back I get drunk, love to have my fun, Most all the women got more than one Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing Ain't it a good thing to have more than one One woman'll never do
