Blind Blake — Rope Stretching Blues Part 2

[Verse 1] Don't trust no woman, who mistreats her man Don't trust no woman, who mistreats her man When you think she's in your kitchen cooking, she's got a stranger by the hand [Verse 2] Ain't no need of you chasing women, brother if you really haven't got the cash Ain't no need of you chasing women, brother if you really haven't got the cash Other men get all the chicken, and all you get is hash [Verse 3] I have a lot of woman, but I sure don't want one now I have a lot of woman, but I sure don't want one now She always milks me dry, better than you ever milk a cow [Verse 4] Mmm, rope stretching all day long Mmm, rope stretching all day long I'm singing now mama, because it won't be long [Verse 5] It wouldn't be so bad, if the rope would just get slack It wouldn't be so bad, if the rope would just get slack I wouldn't mind at all, but I just got a crick in my back [Verse 6] When it's all over mama, and you're all alone by my side When it's all over mama, and you're all alone by my side Just keep the flies from buzzing by me, and then I will be satisfied
