You Can Have My Man If He Comes To See You Too by Alberta Hunter Lyrics

[Verse]
I'm leavin' town today
I'm gonna have my way
You say my man is not my own
Well, you can have him, just give him a home
Don't have to start a row
Go on and take him now
Go on, I say, take him today
'Cause I've got a new papa now

[Chorus]
Now you can have that man
If you say he comes to see you too
Go on and take that man
You will find out that his love ain't true
A man like him ain't worth a cent
He just wants you to pay his room rent
Take it from me, I'm glad I'm free
So you can have that man
I will gladly give that bird to you
Got all my clothes packed, gonna leave this shack
Don't want nobody, Lord, to call me back
My daddy wants me, sweet papa wants me
For me to come there
I'm going now
I'm going to take the fastest train
So you can have that man
[Chorus]
Now, you can have that man
If you say he comes to see you too
Go on and take that man
You will find out that his love ain't true
Lord, a man like that ain't worth a cent
Just wants you to pay his room rent
Take it from me, I'm glad I'm free
So you can have that man
I will gladly give that bird to you
Got all my clothes packed, gonna leave this shack
Don't want nobody, Lord, to call me back
My daddy wants me, sweet papa wants me
For me to come there
I'm going now
I'm going to catch the fastest train
So you can have that man
