《Get Up Off Your Knees》歌词

[00:00:00] Get Up Off Your Knees - Original - Ethel Waters

[00:00:11] A trifling man came home one night

[00:00:16] And tiptoed to his door

[00:00:21] To his despair his little wifie was there

[00:00:25] Waitin' to lay down the law

[00:00:30] Said she "I'm through I'm really sick of you

[00:00:35] Get out stay out and be on your way"

[00:00:40] Well he dropped down on his knees

[00:00:43] Cried "oh please"

[00:00:46] But this is all she had to say:

[00:00:50] Get up get up off your knees papa

[00:00:54] You can't win me back that way

[00:00:59] Turn in turn in all your keys papa

[00:01:04] You really goin' this time to stay

[00:01:08] I discovered that you're the worst man in this town

[00:01:13] Looks like you're fond of keepin' on going lower down

[00:01:18] Get up get up off your knees papa

[00:01:22] You can't win me back that way

[00:01:28] Get right up off your knees papa

[00:01:31] I'm tellin' you you can't win me back that way

[00:01:37] Turn in all your keys papa

[00:01:40] 'Cause I put you out this time to stay

[00:01:45] You're so blamed crooked here are blades

[00:01:49] Looks like it's a hard matter for you to keep your head up straight

[00:01:54] Get up off your knees papa

[00:01:58] You can't win me back that way

[00:02:02] Anyhow Stand up when you're makin' your pleas

[00:02:08] No use you wearin' out your knees

[00:02:12] I heard someone say right next door

[00:02:16] Look mighty strange down there on all fours

[00:02:20] Stop it down like that

[00:02:25] What in the devil anyhow can you be drivin' at

[00:02:29] So get up and stay up off your knees papa

[00:02:34] You can't win me back that way

[00:02:36] Besides it looks suspicious

[00:02:38] And you can't win me back that way
