Prove It on Me Blues

Prove It on Me Blues - Ma Rainey

Went out last night

Had a great big fight

Everything seemed

To go on wrong

I looked up

To my surprise

The gal I was with was gone

Where she went

I don't know

I mean to follow

Everywhere she goes;

Folks say I'm crooked

I didn't know

Where she took it

I want the whole

World to know

They say I do it

Ain't nobody caught me

Sure got to prove it on me;

Went out last night with

A crowd of my friends

They must've been women

Be'cause I don't like no men

It's true I wear a collar and a tie

Makes the wind

Blow all the while

Don't you say I do it

Ain't nobody caught me

You sure got to prove it on me

Say I do it ain't

Nobody caught me

Sure got to prove it on me

I went out last night

With a crowd of my friends

It must've been women

Beause I don't like no men

Wear my clothes just like a fan

Talk to the gals just

Like any old man

''cause they say I do it

Ain't nobody caught me

Sure got to prove it on me
