Lets Get Along by Papa Charlie Jackson Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mama, come here and listen to me
You've been tryin' to see how mean you could be
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 2]
'Tain't every day you can get a good man
Better treat this one right whilst you can
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 3]
I'm tired of all this storm and strife
I ain't gon' put up with this all my life
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Now don't be hardheaded, don't be no fool
Act like a woman, then, not like a mule
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 5]
Now comе on, baby, let's get along
You know you love your daddy, so comе on, let's get along
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 6]
Now at the dance the other night, it was a disgrace
The way you flirt with a man in front of my face
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 7]
You didn't dance with nobody else but him
Do that again, it'll be too bad, Jim
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 8]
Now the jail's all full and the graveyard too
Of aggravatin' women just like you
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 9]
Now I would kill you, but the folks would say it is wrong
What else can I do when you won't get along?
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
Mama, come here and listen to me
You've been tryin' to see how mean you could be
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 2]
'Tain't every day you can get a good man
Better treat this one right whilst you can
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 3]
I'm tired of all this storm and strife
I ain't gon' put up with this all my life
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Now don't be hardheaded, don't be no fool
Act like a woman, then, not like a mule
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 5]
Now comе on, baby, let's get along
You know you love your daddy, so comе on, let's get along
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 6]
Now at the dance the other night, it was a disgrace
The way you flirt with a man in front of my face
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
[Verse 7]

Do that again, it'll be too bad, Jim
Let's get along, baby, let's get along

What else can I do when you won't get along?
Let's get along, baby, let's get along
