Aggravatin Papa lyrics

I know a drivin` man,
They call him Driver Sam,
He lives in Birmingham,
Way down in Alabam.

Now, the other night
He had a fight with a gal named Mandy Brown,
She kept on saying he was aggravatin`,
And she shouted out to him:

Aggravatin` Papa, don`t you try to two-time me!
I said, don`t two-time me!
Aggravatin` Papa, treat me kind or let me be,
I mean, just let me be!
It`s been awhile, I`ll get you told,
Stop messin` round, sweet jellyroll.
If you stay out with a high-brown baby,
I`ll smack you down, and I don`t mean maybe!

Aggravatin` Papa, I`ll do anything you say,
Anything you say,
But when you go struttin`, do your strut around my way!
So, papa, just treat me pretty, be nice and kind!
The way you treated me will make me lose my mind!
Aggravatin` Papa, don`t you try to two-time me!

Just treat me pretty, be nice and sweet!
I got a darn forty-four that don`t repeat,
Aggravatin` Papa, don`t you try to two-time me!
