Red Cap Porter Blues by Elnora Johnson Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Red cap porter, help me with my load
Oh red cap porter, help me with my load
Hey, step aside, captain, let me get on board

[Verse 2]
I've never loved and I never will
Oh, and I never will
This loving proposition is going to get somebody killed

[Verse 3]
Oh, here's one thing, it really should be understood
Oh, here's one thing, it really should be understood
Every man say he loves you don't mean you a bit of good

[Verse 4]
I wish I had a heavеn of my own
Oh-ho-ho, heaven of my own
I would give all thе good girls a long, sweet, happy home

[Verse 5]
You can never tell just what an old man can do
You can never tell just what an old man can do
Keep your eyes on him, girls, he'll put that thing on you
