Lonnie Johnson - Long Time Blues lyrics

VS: Well, hello there Lonnie, where have you been? You know I haven't seen your smilin' face in I don't know when LJ: Well, baby, I been around from town to town But from what I can hear, you been kickin' the gong around VS: Well, I'm still your gal, can't you plainly see? LJ: Well, come on pretty baby, you still look good to me VS: Honey, do you remember when you and I lived on Slap Happy Street? You was jivin' every good lookin' broad that you happened to meet LJ: Well I been throwin' the bull, from Texas, Mexico, and Spain But can't you plainly see, I am still your lovin' man? VS/LJ: That makes me happy, happy as I can be LJ: How could you ever part baby, you mean so much to me? LJ: I'm so happy, back on my stompin' ground LJ: I'm so glad, baby you didn't put me down VS: Well, I'm so glad, your baby 's been kicked around VS: Well, get out you wallet, let's go an' have some fun Get out you wallet, baby, let's have some fun LJ: Well, you know I stays ready baby, stays ready from sun to sun LJ: Now, I've got money from the north, and money from the south VS: Well, give it to me baby, and shut your mouth That'll make me happy, happy as I can be Well, nobody don't know honey, but you, your money, and me LJ: Here's your money from the east, your money from the west You know Lonnie always give Vickie the best So, buy yourself a stole, and a limousine too But don't let me catch another man ridin' with you You'd be so unhappy, happy as I can be If I don't love you mama, a Billy goat can climb a tree VS: Hey, hey Mr. Johnson, you been gone a long, long time While you were away you didn't send me a lousy dime Don't come here, tryin' to be my boss You just about to make sweet mama cross I'm unhappy, unhappy as I can be Why don't you stake 'em out in Texas, and don't bring that bull to me? LJ: Now, look you bad mama, just listen to me Beatin' up your chops, an' you're full of misery Just give you a mink stole, and a limousine too If you keep beatin' up your chops, I'm take 'em both from you You'll be so unhappy ... VS: Yes, Mr. Daddy LJ: It's like a ship that 's lost at sea You don't want no foolin', come on make love to me VS: Yeah, Mr. Daddy
