Dont Fish In My Sea by Ma Rainey Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My daddy come home this mornin', drunk as he could be
My daddy come home this mornin', drunk as he could be
I know that daddy's come to batter me

[Verse 2]
He used to stay out late, now he don't come home at all
He used to stay out late, now he don't come home at all
I know there's another mule, been kicking in my stale

[Verse 3]
If you don't like my ocean, don't fish in my sea
If you don't like my ocean, don't fish in my sea
Stay out of my valley, let my mountain be

[Verse 4]
I ain't had no loving since God knows when
I ain't had no loving since God knows when
That's the reason I'm through with these no-good, trifling men

[Verse 5]
You'll never miss the sunshine till the rain begin to fall
You'll never miss the sunshine till the rain begin to fall
You'll never miss your ham till another mule be in your stall
