Bessie Smith - Reckless Blues lyrics

When I wasn't nothin' but a child When I wasn't nothin' but a child All you men tried to drive me wild Now I'm growin' old Now I'm growin' old And I've got what it takes to get all of you men told My mama says I'm reckless, my daddy says I'm wild My mama says I'm reckless, my daddy says I'm wild I ain't good lookin' but I'm somebody's angel child Daddy, mama wants some lovin' Daddy, mama wants some huggin' Darn it pretty papa, mama wants some lovin' I vow Darn pretty papa, mama wants some lovin' right now
