Baby I Done Got Wise

Baby I Done Got Wise - Big Bill Broonzy

A gypsy told me to let them women be

She said A man's your best friend

I said Are you tellin' me

'Cause I done got wise now

Oh to the way these women do

Yeah you've been tryin' to trick me baby

Now the trick's done turned on you

I don't know whether my woman was jokin'

Or what she intends to do

But I done pulled the right card

And I done got tattooed

Now I done got wise

Oh to the way these women do

Yeah you've been tryin' to trick me baby

Now the trick done turned on you

If there's forty-eight cards in the deck

Just give me ten

If you can play with the women

I can play with the men

'Cause I done got wise baby

Oh to the way you women do

Yeah you've been tryin' to trick me

Baby

Now the trick's done turned on you

I been married three times

I was drunk as I could be

Two women had me

Now I done got wise

Oh to the way these women do

Oh to the way you women do

Yeah you've been tryin' to trick me

Baby
