Get Up Off Your Knees

Get Up Off Your Knees - Hazel Smith/Jazz Kings

A trifling man came home one night

And tiptoed to his door

To his despair his wifie was there

Waiting to lay down the law

Said he I'm through I'm sick of you

Stay out of here be on your way

Well on his knees

He cried oh please

This is all she had to say

Get up get up off your knees papa

You can't win me back that way

Now turn in all my keys papa

I put on you out this time to stay

You're the worst man in this town

You keeping on going lower down

So get up off your knees papa

You can't win me back that way

You move begin

You can't win me back that way

Now get up and stay up off your knees papa

You can't win me back that way

Now turn in all my keys papa

I put you out this time to stay

Now you're so crooked here are blades

You can even hold your head up straight

So get up and stay up off your knees papa

You can't win me back that way

You know you can't win me back that way

And now get up

And stay up off your knees papa

You know you can't win me back that way

Come on come on turn in all my keys

Oh papa

I put you out this time to stay

Now I heard someone say in a house next door

Why you look strange down there

On all fours

So that's why want to get up

And get up off your knees papa

Cause you can't get me back that way

I mean daddy

You can't get me back that way
