I Used to Be Your Sweet Mama - Bessie Smith (贝西·史密斯)[00:00:00]
Yes I'm mad and I have a right to be[00:00:12]
After what my daddy did to me[00:00:16]
I lavished all my love on him[00:00:22]
But I swear I'll never love again[00:00:27]
All you women understand what is[00:00:33]
To be in love with a two-time man[00:00:38]
The next time he calls me "Sweet mama" in his lovin' way[00:00:44]
This is what I'm going to say[00:00:50]
I used to be your sweet mama sweet papa[00:00:56]
But now I'm just as sour as can be[00:01:01]
So don't come stormin' around my way[00:01:07]
Expectin' any love from me[00:01:13]
You had your chance and proved unfaithful[00:01:19]
So now I'm gonna be real mean and hateful[00:01:24]
I used to be your sweet mama sweet papa[00:01:29]
But now I'm just as sour as can be[00:01:35]
I ain't gonna let no man worry me sick[00:01:41]
Or turn this hair o' mine grey[00:01:46]
Soon as I catch him at his two-time trick[00:01:52]
I'm gonna tell him to be on his way[00:01:57]
To the world I scream[00:02:03]
"No man can treat me mean[00:02:05]
And expect my love all the time"[00:02:08]
When he roams away[00:02:13]
He'd better stay[00:02:16]
If he comes back he'll find[00:02:19]
You had your chance and proved unfaithful[00:02:26]
So now I'm gonna be real mean and hateful[00:02:31]
I used to be your sweet mama sweet papa[00:02:37]
But now I'm just as sour as can be[00:02:42]
