Yeah! What'd you say, boy?
She ain't so good lookin', teeth don't shine like pearls
Don't take good looks to carry a woman through this world
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
Make a blind man see, make a lame man walk
Make a deaf man hear, make a dumb man talk
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
She went to see a preacher, she went there for prayer
She left the preacher sayin' when she left there
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
Play it again now!
Yeah
Carry her in the courtroom, carry her there for trial
The judge looked her over and said, "Let her trial go by"
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
Well, she goes down in town, ain't got one dime
She come back home, says she dressed so fine
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
How would you watch it, boy?
You can take my woman, but you can't keep her long
Got your southern style jive, say you can't catch on
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
That's the stuff you got to watch
Boys, take a tip from me
