Men sure is deceitful
They's gettin' worser ev'ry day
Men sure is deceitful
They's gettin' worser ev'ry day
Actin' like a bunch of women
They's just-a gabbin', gabbin', gabbin' away
There's two things got me puzzled
There's two things I can't understand
There's two things got me puzzled
There's two things I can't understand
That's a mannish actin' woman
And a skippin' twistin' woman actin' man
Lord, I used to love a man
He always made my poor heart ache
Yeah I love my man
He makes my poor heart ache
He's crooked as a corkscrew
And evil as a copperhead snake
I knew a certain man who spent a year
Runnin' a poor girl down
I knew a certain man who spent a year
Runnin' a poor girl down
And when she let him kiss her
The fool blabbed it all over town
