Roberto,

Last Chance Blues
Cannon's Jug Stompers (1929)

I said hey, baby, I'll give you your last chance
I said hey, baby, I'll give you your last chance
I give you all these dresses, but you wanna wear my pants

I said hey, what's the matter now
I said hey hey, baby, what's the matter now
You just a trifling woman, don't mean me no good no how

Harmonica solo

I give you my money, baby, but that don't do no good
I give you my money, baby, but that don't do no good
I think I'll start you out to working, that's just what I should

I said hey, what's the matter now
I said hey hey, baby, what's the matter now
You just a trifling woman, don't mean me no good no how

I said hey, what am I gonna do
I said hey hey, mama, what am I gonna do
I've done everything, baby, can't get along with you

D, D, D, D
G, G, D, D
A, A, D, D

VCANNON's JUG STOMPERS, LAST CHANCE BLUES. This text needs a careful check. Most of the lines I got from the notes behind a Herwin LP dedicated to the Cannon's Jug Stompers, but there are many points that are not clear. Thanks. R

I said, hey, baby, I'm givin' you your last chance
I said, hey, hey, baby, I'm givin' you your last chance
Ah, you're due to have no success, but you want to wear my pants

I says, he-e-e-ey! What's the matter now?
I says, hey, hey, baby, what's the matter now?
You're just a triflin' woman, don't mean me no good no-how

Say, I'd give you my money, but that don't do no good
I'd give you my money, baby, but that don't do no good
I think I'll start you out to workin', that's just what I should

I says, he-e-e-e-ey, what's the matter now?
I says, hey, hey baby, what's your matter now?
You're just a triflin' woman, don't mean me no good no-how

I says, he-e-e-e-ey, what am I gonna do?
I says, hey, hey mama, what am I gonna do?
I don't ever think, baby, can get along with you
