Alberta Hunter — Working Man

Lot of these chicks keep cryin’ murdered, but me? I don’t have to move my hand Let these chicks keep cryin’ hard luck, me? I don’t have to move my hand I got myself a little apartment, dogs and a cat, and a workin’ man He never wins no beauty contest, goodness knows, he don’t dress fine He never wins no beauty contest, goodness knows, he don’t dress fine But he’s happy and ambitious, and he lays it on the line I don’t want no hipster lover, they’ve got larceny in their eyes I don’t want no hipster lover, they’ve got larceny in their eyes They’ve got a hand full of “gimme” and a mouth full of much “oblige” But when people see us together, they come to laugh and turn away When some people see us together, they come to sneer and turn away But the joke is on them baby, ‘cause I’m eatin’ three square meals ev’ry day Now chicks can stop cryin’ murdered if you just adopt my plan You glamour girls can stop cryin’ inflation if you just adopt my plan Stop lettin’ these hipsters join’ you and get yourself a workin’ man My man ain’t a bit of lookin’, he’s kind of old and very thin My man ain’t a bit of lookin’, he’s kind of old and very thin But he play good tunes and honey, left in an old violin
