Alberta Hunter — You Can’t Do What My Last Man Did Take 2

[Verse 1] Listen, daddy mine, what do you want of me? I've been just as good as can be Now the love I had for you has turned to hate You don't appreciate, so daddy, there's the gate You can't do what my last man did Dog me around, treat me like a kid [Verse 2] I'm wise to what you'd like to do So from now on, let me miss you I weep and pine all the time While you show off with friends of mine My last man tried to drag me down But he was one good man to have hanging around [Verse 3] When the clock on the wall strikes half past three I want every little thing you took from me 'Cause you can't do what my last man did Daddy, you can't do what my last man did I'd love you, if you only could [Verse 4] I see right now you must be told I can't stand a man that's cold Who can't love sufficiently And make me forget about my used-to-be My last man tried to drag me down But he was one good man to have hanging around [Verse 5] Now, the last cruel papa that blacked my eye The next man that does it, he's doomed to die 'Cause you can't do what my last man did
