All The Beauty

Too Many Men - RUTH BROWN

I got too many men

I change like the weather

Every now and then

I got too many men

I pick one then another

And I'm gone again

I started out with one

Till I met his oldest son

When I found his love was new

Then I strung along with two

Then I picked up number three

When his best friend fell for me

Then I finally made it four

When a fine one moved next door

I got too many men

I got them tall and a-short

And a-fat and thin

I got too many men

I pick one then another

And I'm gone again

I met a careless wife

And her husband made it five

Then I did some shameful tricks

Trapped a schoolboy that was six

Well I jumped at number seven

When a rich one dropped from heaven

Workin' early until late

I soon added number eight

I got too many men

And I leave them crying

Everywhere I've been

I got too many men

I pick one then another

And I'm gone again

I let my boss be nine

Just to ease his worried mind

I fell off with number ten

Now I'm lookin' around again

I got too many men

I pick one then another

And I'm gone again

I got too many men

If they ever get together

It'll be a sin
