You've Been A Good Old Wagon

(album: Back To The Blues - 1963)

Well now let me tell you baby
Please get out of my sight
I'm calling it quits now
Right from this very night

You know, you've had your day
So don't sit around and frown
You've been a good old wagon
Daddy but you done broke down

Well now you'd better go home to the blacksmith shop
Please try to get yourself an overhaul
There's nothing about you sweetie
That could make a good woman bawl

You see nobody needs a clown
When a good man can be found
Ooh, you was a good old wagon
But daddy you done broke down

Well now there's no need to cry
Please don't make this thing a big joke
My new man has taught me more about loving
Than you will ever know

You see he is the king of love
That's why I gave him a crown
'Cause he's a real good old wagon
No, and he ain't broke down
