Sam, You`re Just A Rat (1932) — текст песни (Lonnie Johnson)

Sam, you say you`re my friend, but your ways I just don`t like.
Sam, you say you`re my friend, but your ways I just don`t like.
Soon as I leave my home, you`re tryin` to bite me in my back.

Now Sam, you`re not my friend, and my home you better stop hangin` `round.
Sam, you`re not my friend, and my home you better stop hangin` `round.
`Cause I paid for your coffin, and I mean that you`re graveyard bound.

Sam, if you want a woman go get one, and let my wife alone.
Sam, if you want a woman go get one, and let my wife alone.
`Cause if I would catch you with my wife, you`re hell bound sure
as I`m born.

Sam, a real man can`t live happy, for no-good men like you.
Sam, a real man can`t live happy, for no-good men like you.
You`re tryin` to wreck my family, and some other man`s family too.

Sam, I thought you was my friend, I thought you just was swell.
Sam, I thought you was my friend, I thought you was just too swell.
I`m goin` you a vacation, that`s a round trip ticket to hell.
