Baby I Done Got Wise Lyrics


Big Bill Broonzy Baby I Done Got Wise


(Big Bill Broonzy)
A gypsy told mother to let them women be,
She said, "A man's your best friend",
I said, "Are you tellin' me?"
'Cause I done got wise now,
Oh, to the way these women do
Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me baby,
Now the trick's done turned on you

I don't know whether my woman was joking or what she intends to do,
But I done pulled the right card 'n' I done got tattooed
I done got wise,
Oh, to the way these women do
Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby,
Now the trick's done turned on you

If there's forty-eight cards in the deck,
I can play with the men
'Cause I done got wise, baby,
Oh, to the way you women do
Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby
Now the trick's done turned on you

I been married three times
I was drunk as I could be
'Cause I done got wise, baby,
Oh, to the way you women do
Yeah, you've been tryin' to trick me, baby
Now the trick's done turned on you
