Lyrics:

Billie Holiday



My man don't love me

Treats me oh so mean

My man he don't love me

Treats me awfully

He's the, lowest man

That I've ever see



He wears high trimmed pan

Stripes are really yellow

He wears high trimmed pan

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 repeat

Love will make you drink and gamble

Make you stay out all night long repeat



Love will make you do things

That you know is wrong



But if you treat me right baby

I'll stay home everyday

But if you treat me right baby

I'll stay home everyday



But you're so mean to me baby

I know you're gonna drive me away



Love is just like the faucet

It turns off and on

Love is just like the faucet

It turns off and on



Sometimes when you think it's on baby

It has turned off and gone
