Millie Jackson A Little Taste Of Outside Love
(Telephone ringing)
Hello! Uh-oh. Hi, baby.
No, I'm just sick and tired of this phone ringing all day long.
Everybody calling me with a bunch of problems.
My girlfriend done called me.
She's talking about leaving her old man.
He done called me. He upset,
But I damn can't sure blame her for being upset, boy.
Let me tell you what this idiot did.
He thought she was going shopping most of the day.
I guess she got back too soon for him,
'Cause she saw the car when he pulled away.
Whatever that woman been putting on him,
Lord, it must've been mighty strong
For that fool that had the nerve to bring some woman into their home.
He tried to tell her she was the Avon lady who just happened by,
And she was selling some new perfume that she wanted his wife to try.
If stupidity was a crime,
Lord, he spent his life in jail.
He didn't even have enough common sense to take the woman to a motel,
So she told him put your rags in a brown paper bag.
Go on and hit the door. (Go on.)
Let the knob hit you in the back, Jack.
I don't ever wanna see you no more.
(Go let it hit you in the back, Jack.)
Ain't no use in looking pitiful.
I'm trying to explain.
A little taste of outside love has blown their whole thing.
She took him from the worst alley and tried to show him the light.
But you know what, you can comfort a snake,
But he's still gonna bite.
He leaned on her weakness what really turned her on.
She should've put him out a little bit sooner,
But his love must've been too strong.
But even a dog will get tired if you keep on doing him wrong.
He won't even come to you if you offer him his favorite bone,
So she told him put your rags in a brown paper bag.
Go on and hit the door. (Go on.)
Let the knob hit you in the back, Jack,
'Cause I don't ever wanna see you no more.
(Go let it hit you in the back, Jack.)
So ain't no use in looking pitiful.
I'm trying to explain.
A little taste of outside love has blown their whole thing.
Yes it did.
A little taste of outside loving has blown his whole thing.
(A little taste of outside love)
A taste of outside loving has blown his whole thing.
He blew it, baby.
(A little taste of outside love has blown their whole thing.)
The man is blowing his whole thing.
(A little taste of outside love...) But what the hell?
You can't really blame him.
