Ma Rainey — Prove It on Me Blues

[Verse 1] Went out last night, had a great big fight Everything seemed to go on wrong I looked up, to my surprise The gal I was with was gone [Verse 2] Where she went, I don't know I mean to follow everywhere she goes; Folks say I'm crooked. I didn't know where she took it I want the whole world to know [Chorus] They say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me; Went out last night with a crowd of my friends They must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men [Verse 3] It's true I wear a collar and a tie Makes the wind blow all the while Don't you say I do it, ain't nobody caught me You sure got to prove it on me [Chorus] Say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me I went out last night with a crowd of my friends It must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men [Verse 4] Wear my clothes just like a fan Talk to the gals just like any old man 'Cause they say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me
