Marion Harris - How Come You Do Me Like You Do? lyrics

When soon this morning, I come rapping at your door You kept me waiting like you never did before That's a sure sign brown skin I'll never rap no more, no more How come you do me like you do do do? How come you do me like you do? Why do you try to make me feel so blue? I ain't done nothing to you You might be the meanest man in town But I'm just mean enough to turn your damper down How come you do me like you do do do? How come you do me like you do? Don't I let you do just what I want you to? Don't I let you cheer me up when I feel blue? And when it comes to huntin' jobs, I never shirk I can always find a job but you won't go to work Don't I always try to let you have my way? And still you treat me mean, meaner every day You better treat me right or let me be 'Cause I can be a goon just like you do with me (Solo like 1 verse below) How come you do me like you do do do, do do like you do Why do you try to make me feel so blue, boo hoo I ain't done nothin' to you I lay your head on a railroad line and let the train come along and pacify your mind How come you do me like you do do do, do do do like you do do I'll get a shovel before I'm done If you haven't got a hole I'm gonna dig you one How come you do me like you do do do, do do do like you do do
