Well,
hello there, Lonnie.
Where have you been?
You know, I haven't seen
your smilin' face,
and I don't know when.
Well, baby, I've been around
from town to town,
but from what I can hear,
you've been kickin' the gong around.
Well, I'm still your gal,
can't you plainly see?
Well, come on, pretty baby,
you still look good to me.
Honey, do you remember
when you and I lived on Slap
Happy Street?
You was jivin' every
good -lookin' broad
that you happened to meet.
Well, I've been throwin' the bull
from Texas, Mexico, and Spain,
but can 't you plainly see
I'm still your lovin' man?
That makes me happy,
happy as I can be
How could you ever part baby,
you mean so much to me
I'm so happy,
back on my stomping ground
I'm so glad, baby,
you didn't put me down
Well, I'm so glad
your baby's been kicked around
Well, get out your wallet,
let's go and have some fun.
Get out your wallet, baby,
let's have some fun.
Well, you know I stays ready,
baby,
stays ready from sun to sun
.
Now, I got money from the north
and money from the
Well, give it to me, baby,
and shut your mouth
That'll make me happy,
happy as I can be
Well, nobody don't know, but you,
your money, and me
Yes, your money from the East,
your money from the West
You know Lonnie always
give Vickie the best
So buy yourself a stole
and a limousine too
But don't let me catch an
other man ridin' with you
you'd be so unhappy,
happy as I can be.
If I don't love you, Mama,
a billy goat can't climb a tree.
Hey, hey, Mr. Johnson,
you've been gone a long, long time.
While you were away,
you didn't send me a lousy dime.
Don't come here trying to be my boss
You're just about to make
sweet mama cross
I'm un happy, unhappy as I can be
Why don't you
stake him out in Texas
And don't bring that bull
to me
Now look here, fat mama,
just listen to me
Beatin' up your chops
send you full of misery
Just give your mink stool
and a limousine too
If you keep beatin' up your chops
and take them both from you
You'll be so unhappy
Yes, Mr. Danny
It's like a ship that's lost
at sea
You don't want no foolin'
Come on, make love to me
Yeah, Mr. Daddy
