50-50

I-m all alone in this world, she said,
Ain-t got nobody to share my bed,
Ain-t got nobody to hold my hand-
The truth of the matter-s
I ain-t got no man.

Big Boy opened his mouth and said,
Trouble with you is
You ain-t got no head!
If you had a head and used your mind
You could have me with you
All the time.

She answered, Babe, what must I do?

He said, Share your bed-
And your money, too.
