Текст (слова) песни: Lonnie Johnson - I`m Just Dumb (1940)
It’s a pity the way I love you, and you ain’t worth a dime. You talk all night in your sleep, baby then you wake up lyin’. It will take me a while to forget you, but I’ll finally get you off my mind.
Your ways is so sweet, but oh, what a rotten mind. Your face is really beautiful, babe, and your jive is really fine. That’s it … [spoken words – Dan Dixon] But to trust you with the truth mama, you know is just a waste of time.
When you first met me you said you loved me, I knew all the time that you was lyin’. Said you loved me baby, but I couldn’t get you off my mind. You know I ‘s just a poor little fool, that’s why you played me for deaf, dumb, and blind. Yes, talk to me! [spoken words – Dan Dixon]
When you said you was all mine, I was still too dumb to see. When you said you was all mine, I was still too dumb to see. How could Jones be your brother, when your last name is Julia Lee?
I know you didn’t love me baby; it was so plain to see. Aaaaah, greased ‘n lightenin’! [spoken words – Dan Dixon] You still lied to me baby, and you made a sap out of po’ little me. You know yourself Jones and Lee, don’t sound like sister and brother to me.
