Lyrics for Fine And Mellow
My man don't love me Treats me oh so mean My man, he don't love me Treats me awful mean He's the lowest man That I've ever seen He wears high-draped pants Stripes are really yellow He wears high-draped pants Stripes are really yellow But when he starts in to love me He's so fine and mellow Love will make you drink and gamble Make you stay out all night long Love will make you drink and gamble Make you stay out all night long Love will make you do things that you know is wrong But if you treat me right baby I'll stay home every day If you treat me right baby I'll stay home every day But you're so mean to me, baby I know you're gonna drive me away Love is just like a faucet It turns off and on Love is just like a faucet It turns off and on Sometimes when you think it's on, baby It has turned off and gone
