T-Bone Walker - Long Skirt Baby Blues Lyrics

(Aaron Thibeaux "T-Bone" Walker)

When I first met you baby, you were a real gone chick
When I first met you baby, you were a real gone chick
Now you've let your skirt down 'n you know that ain't the lick

You better wake up baby n' change your antique ways
You better wake up baby n' change your antique ways
Instead of advancin' baby, you're goin back to horse and buggy days

You said the style is changin', I don't know why I should laugh or cry
You said the style is changin' I don't know if I should laugh or cry
You've been wearin' long skirts baby, you don't know the reason why

Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Just leave it up to a woman, they'll do it every time
Well ain't no long skirt baby, gonna be no gal a-mine
