Jim Dixon Lyr Add: You Gotta Reap What You Sow (A Hunter) (13) Lyr Add: REAP WHAT YOU SOW (B McGhee/S Terry) 19 May 14


REAP WHAT YOU SOW
As sung by Brownie McGhee & Sonny Terry on "The Old Town Recordings"

1. You know I love you, but you don't seem to care.
The better I treat you, you won't play fair and square.

CHORUS: But there's one thing for sure that I really know:
You gonna reap just what you sow.

2. My mother always told me: live by the golden rule:
Do unto others as you'd have them do to you.

3. If you don't believe it, darlin', just wait around and see:
Somebody's gonna mistreat you like you treated me.

4. If you don't believe it, just wait around and see:
Somebody's gonna mistreat you like you doggin' me.

5. Babe, what you sow, babe, you've got to reap,
And what you reap is gon' to make you weep.
