AIN'T GOIN' NO PLACE
Dick Larkin
Peggy Lee w The Capitol Jazzmen
rec Jan 7th 1944 Los Angeles
I'm a good steady woman, only one thing I crave,
I'm a good steady woman, only one thing that I crave,
You got me right where you want me and I ain't the kind to misbehave!
Ain't goin' no place, I got no place to go!
I ain't goin' no place, I got no place to go!
I'm just hopin', prayin', waitin' for my no-good man to show!
I'm no good without you, can't move you from my mind,
But you know when you want me, not a gal is hard to find!
Listen to me baby, you better drop just what you're doin',
Just one last thing to say before I set my plan=s to movin';
If you can't come home and do right, I'm gonna head for wrack and ruin!
Why don't you come on home, baby?
