Lyrics
Well, I'm going down to Rosie's
Stop at Fanny May's
Tell Fanny what I heard her
Boyfriend said
No, don't start me to talking
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna bring up this signifying
Lord, somebody's got to go
Jack and his wife, two daughters
Go downtown to get some market
Got out on the street
Old Joe had stopped her
He knocked her down
And blackened her eye
She get back home
Tell her husband a lie
No, don't start me to talking
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna bring up this signifying
Lord, somebody's got to go
Alright
She borrowed some money
For the beauty shop
He honked his horn
She began to stop
Says, "Take me, baby
Around the block
Going to the beauty shop
And get my hair done"
No, don't start me to talking
I'll tell everything I know
I'm gonna bring up this signifying
Lord, somebody's got to go
