Wasn't That Good

Wasn't That Good - Wynonie Harris

I'm gonna buy a paper doll

That I can call my own

A doll that other fellows cannot steal

And then the flirty flirty guys with their flirty

Flirty eyes

Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting

She'll be the truest doll in all this world

I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own

Than have a fickle-minded real live girl

I guess you've played the doll game o'er and o'er

I guess you had a million dolls or more

You just quarrelled with Sue that's why I'm blue

She's gone away and left me just like all dolls do

I'll guess you know it's tough to be alone

And it's just to love a doll that's not your own

I'm through with all of them

I'll never ball again

Say boy whatcha gonna do

I'm gonna buy a paper doll that I can call my own

A doll that other fellows cannot steal

And then the flirty flirty guys with their flirty

Flirty eyes

Will have to flirt with dollies that are real

When I come home at night she will be waiting

She'll be the truest doll in all this world

I'd rather have a paper doll to call my own

Than have a fickle-minded real live girl
