NO GOOD MAN (Trixie Smith)
Smith

as rec by Trixie Smith w Barney Bigard & his Orch  1939


I'm one woman who can't use a no good man,
I say I'm one woman who can't use a no good man,
'Cause a man like him is only good for a one night stand!

I'm a red hot chick, just bubblin' out with flamin' youth,
I say I'm a red hot chick, just bubblin' out with flamin' youth,
It takes a real hip man to make me tell the truth!

He's got to get in the groove and get a new technique,
He's got to get in the groove and get a new technique,
I'm tired of old style lovin', a modern man I'm forced to seek!

My first name's Trixie, the last I've never been told,
I say my first name's Trixie, the last I've never been told,
I've been chasin' pygmys since I was nine days old!

Now there ain't but two people in this world I can't stand,
I say there's two people in this world I can't stand,
That's a two faced woman and a lyin' man!
