Chattanooga Man

Chattanooga Man - Lucille Hegamin

Men are men in Missouri

Men are men up in Maine

But in Chattanooga

I met one sweet thing

Easy to want

But harder to get

Is this loving baby

But I'll keep taunting him

Always a haunting him

Till I get him maybe

Chattanooga man

If you will you can

Make me happy night and day

Drive my weary blues away

Please don't maybe me

Treat me lovingly

Gimme a kiss turn on the bliss

Don't let mama beg like this

I've been craving all my life it seems

For a certain kind of affection

That's the way my disposition leans

You can fill the bill to perfection

Nobody else in old Tennessee

Ever could make a fool out of me

Like my sugar

Chattanooga man

Gals in Tennessee chase him

Follow him all around

And sometimes they crave him

From another town

Fools with them all

But how he would stall

When they speak of marriage

He's not the kind of man

No woman ever can make him push her carriage

Chattanooga man

If you will you can

Make me happy night and day

Drive my weary blues away

Please don't maybe me

Treat me lovingly

Gimme a kiss turn on the bliss

Don't let mama beg like this

I've been craving all my life it's seems

For a certain kind of affection

That's the way my disposition leans

You can fill the bill to perfection

Chickens will cluck and roosters will crow

But how to love don't nobody know

Like my sugar
