A                          A7
Shall you tell me who’s the flapper I see you with every night?
D7                         A
And she’s vampin’ so hard, I’m bound to lose my appetite
                 E           D7           A
That’s my fairskinned mama, better known as Miss Jennie Rice

I’m going to make you wish you never had been born
D7                 A
I just went uptown, got my gun out of pawn
                 E           D7           A
Said don’t start nothing mama your papa’s got your bath water on
 
A                          A7
If you don’t have me, papa, you won’t have no gal at all
D7                       A
And it seems all the women you meet is bound to fall
                 E           D7           A
Well your daddy said it straight mama you could back 
your mule up in my stall
