One Time Woman Blues by Ida Cox Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1925

[Verse 1]
Some bob-haired flapper came and stole my man away
Some bob-haired flapper came and stole my man away
He's been gone two years but it seems to me like yesterday

[Verse 2]
I'll get me a cannon, pistol and a submarine
I'll get me a cannon, pistol and a submarine
To blow down every man that treats a one-time woman mean

[Verse 3]
I'm gonna lay in bed with my face turned to the wall
I'm gonna lay in bed with my face turned to the wall
And I won't turn over 'til I hear my daddy call

[Verse 4]
One of these mornings, hе's goin' to wake up almost dead
One of thеse mornings, he's goin' to wake up almost dead
And the doctor will be [taping/takin'/?] stitches all across his head

[Verse 5]
But here is something that he don't seem to understand
But here is something he don't seem to understand
I'm a one-time woman and I don't want no two-time man
