[00:00.00]You Can't Do What My Last Man Did - Ethel Waters
[00:18.97]Listen daddy mine what do you want of me
[00:22.96]I've been just as good as can be
[00:27.27]Now the love I had for you has turned to hate
[00:31.58]You don't appreciate
[00:33.89]So Daddy there's the gate
[00:36.51]You can't do what my last man did
[00:45.12]Boss me 'round and treat me like he did
[00:53.17]I'm wise to what you'd like to do
[00:57.41]So from now on let me miss you
[01:02.09]I weep and pine all the time
[01:06.21]While you show off with friends of mine
[01:11.01]My last man tried to drag me down
[01:19.19]But he was one good man to have around
[01:27.18]But when the clock on the wall strikes half past three
[01:32.36]I want all the things you took from me
[01:36.22]'Cause you can't do what my last man did
[01:45.08]Early this morning you wanted to fight
[01:49.39]'Cause you heard I cabareted last night
[01:53.51]Tried to take my money and pawn my flat
[01:57.81]Now you've worn the welcome clean off my mat
[02:02.01]'Cause you can't do what my last man did
[02:07.26]Hold me tight treat me right every night
[02:11.25]I'd love you if you only did
[02:16.05]Every night treat me right hold me tight
[02:19.92]You're mighty old to be so bold
[02:24.10]And I can't stand a man that's cold
[02:28.36]Why you can't love me sufficiently
[02:30.93]To make me forget my used-to-be
[02:37.30]He could love like a lover should
[02:41.85]Always could when he would he was good
[02:45.54]You've lost your nest go east or west but go just go
[02:52.96]Now that last cruel papa he blacked my eye
[02:58.28]Then left me alone to sigh and cry
[03:02.61]But you can't do what that last man did
