Ethel Waters
If You Don’t Think I’ll Do Sweet Pops (Just Try Me)
[Verse]
Now look here, daddy, don't you dare to frown
My love for you has led me to this town
If you'd only see my vamping charms
They'd lead you right into my arms
Now dear, please listen to my earnest plea
You're all that I will ever, ever need
I feel so lonely just for you only
Just take me, honey, and all my money
Oh please, sweetie, and rock me on your knee
[Chorus]
If you don't think I'll do, sweet pops, just try me
If I don't suit your tastes, then you just fire me
When it comes to love
Don't you know, I'm a turtle dove
For I can kiss you, honey, so you'll feel so funny
That you'll always cry for more
If you want someone to love, then please take me
For heaven's sake, dear, don't you dare forsake me
If I can have my way, you sure can have your say
For I will do my best to please you, baby
If you don't think I'll do, sweet pops, just try me
If I don't suit your taste, then you can fire me
For my heart beats, baby, just for you
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
If you want someone to love, then dear, please take me
For heaven's sake, dear, don't you dare forsake me
If I can have my way, you sure can have your say
And I will do my best just to please you, baby
If you don't think I'll do, sweet pops, just try me
If I don't suit your taste, then you just fire me
For my heart beats, baby, just for you
