| [00:05.920] |
He would spend it on the ponies, |
| [00:08.900] |
He would spend it on the girls, |
| [00:12.150] |
Buy his mother gin and roses |
| [00:15.280] |
For her poor old henna'd curls. |
| [00:18.720] |
but when his wife said, "Hey now! |
| [00:22.150] |
What did you get for me?" |
| [00:25.260] |
He socked her in the chopper, |
| [00:28.410] |
Such a sweet sweet guy was he! |
| [00:31.300] |
And her tears flowed like wine, |
| [00:34.100] |
Yes her tears flowed like wine, |
| [00:37.680] |
She's a real sad tomato, |
| [00:40.820] |
She's a busted valentine. |
| [00:43.630] |
Knows her mama done told her |
| [00:47.650] |
That her man is darned unkind. |
| [00:52.070] |
|
| [00:58.830] |
How he loved the old race horses, |
| [01:02.430] |
He would bet them every day. |
| [01:05.210] |
One day he caught a winner |
| [01:08.330] |
And the cabbage wasn't hay! |
| [01:11.560] |
He indulged in fancy spending, |
| [01:15.000] |
Ordered rings, cars and furs, |
| [01:18.150] |
But alas, alack, |
| [01:20.000] |
Like a stab in the back, |
| [01:21.750] |
She found out they were not hers! |
| [01:24.870] |
And her tears flowed like wine, |
| [01:27.670] |
Yes her tears flowed like wine, |
| [01:31.110] |
She's a real sad tomato, |
| [01:34.660] |
She's a busted valentine. |
| [01:37.610] |
Knows her mama done told her |
| [01:41.050] |
That her man is darned unkind. |
| [01:45.040] |
|
| [01:51.530] |
He got mixed up with a Maisie, |
| [01:54.710] |
He got mixed up with a Flo, |
| [01:58.030] |
So Flo shoved him in the river, |
| [02:01.470] |
He'll not get mixed up no more! |
| [02:04.670] |
His wife then draped herself in black |
| [02:08.160] |
That showed her figure fine, |
| [02:11.280] |
Then she cussed him out, the two-faced guy, |
| [02:14.820] |
No insurance could she find. |
| [02:18.160] |
And her tears flowed like wine, |
| [02:20.750] |
Yes her tears flowed like wine, |
| [02:24.220] |
She's a real sad tomato, |
| [02:28.000] |
She's a busted valentine. |
| [02:30.820] |
Knows her mama done told her |
| [02:34.270] |
That her man is darned unkind. |
| [02:37.970] |
