Ain't It A Good Thing?

歌詞

Spoken: Yes, I'm gon' always have more than one! When I was young, in my prime I kep a gang of women all the time I had a gal, her name was Lu You never could tell what she would do Ain't it a good thing? Ain't it a good thing to have more than one? I had another gal, her name was Henrietta You'd catch her with a man, she'd tell you she didn't know no better Ain't it a good thing? Ain't it a good thing to have more than one? Had another gal, her name was Betty She was always tippin' in some dark alley 'f I would just even, step through a crack She would have some man fight me in my back Ain't it a good thing? Ain't it a good thing to have more than one? I got a gal, her name was Mae Late last night she drove me away, and told me to stay Well, I went right out, got me a drink of gin Went right back to Mae's house again She called me in, said, "Let's have a little fun But don't come in a party, 'cause I gots only one" Now, ain't it a good thing? Ain't it a good thing to have more than one? Tell all you men somethin', don't you raise no fuss Ain't none of these women, nary will do to trust They are all bow-legged, from their ankles to their knees Anything they got they will give it away free When you're out workin', got a plan They is winkin' and drinkin' at some other man You may be brown-skinned, you may be black Mama, what I said 'bout you, I sure won't take it back Ain't it a good thing? Ain't it a good thing to have more than one?
