MADELEINE PEYROUX - Reckless Blues lyrics

( Bessie Smith )

When I wasn't nothing but a child

When I wasn't nothing but a child

All you men tried to drive me wild

Now I'm, now I'm growing old

Now, now I'm growing old

And I've got what it takes to get all of you men told

My mama says I'm reckless, my daddy says I'm wild

My mama says I'm reckless, my daddy says I'm wild

I ain't good looking but I'm somebody's angel child

Daddy, mama wants some loving

Daddy, mama need some hugging

Darn it pretty papa

Mama wants some lovin' I vow

Darn pretty papa

Mama wants some lovin' right now
