"Good Old Wagon" lyrics
(originally by Bessie Smith)
Hey, lookie here, pretty mama, please get out of my sight
I'm callin' it quits now, from this very night
You had your chance, now, don't you sit around and frown
You've been a good old wagon, mama, but you done broke down
You better go down to the blacksmith shop and get yourself an overhaul
There ain't nothin' about you would make a good man crawl
'Cause nobody wants a baby when a real woman can be found
Yeah, you've been a good old wagon, mama, but you done broke down
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm, got me a new baby, and I mean to tell you so
She's taught me more about lovin' than you will ever know
She's a queen of lovin', yeah, and she oughta be wearin' a crown
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
Aw, yeah, now you know that
She's a queen of lovin', she oughta be wearin' a crown
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
No, no, no, no
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
I'm callin' it quits now, from this very night
You had your chance, now, don't you sit around and frown
You've been a good old wagon, mama, but you done broke down
You better go down to the blacksmith shop and get yourself an overhaul
There ain't nothin' about you would make a good man crawl
'Cause nobody wants a baby when a real woman can be found
Yeah, you've been a good old wagon, mama, but you done broke down
Mm, mm, mm-mm-mm-mm
Mm, got me a new baby, and I mean to tell you so
She's taught me more about lovin' than you will ever know
She's a queen of lovin', yeah, and she oughta be wearin' a crown
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
Aw, yeah, now you know that
She's a queen of lovin', she oughta be wearin' a crown
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
No, no, no, no
She's a good old wagon, mama, and she ain't broke down
