Prove It On Me - Lyrics - Ma Rainey

"Ma" Rainey was one of the earliest known American professional blues singers and one of the first generation of such singers to record. She was billed as The Mother of the Blues.

Went out last night, had a great big fight Everything seemed to go on wrong I looked up, to my surprise The gal I was with was gone. Where she went, I don't know I mean to follow everywhere she goes; Folks say I'm crooked. I didn't know where she took it I want the whole world to know. They say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me; Went out last night with a crowd of my friends, They must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men. It's true I wear a collar and a tie, Makes the wind blow all the while Don't you say I do it, ain't nobody caught me You sure got to prove it on me. Say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me. I went out last night with a crowd of my friends, It must've been women, 'cause I don't like no men. Wear my clothes just like a fan Talk to the gals just like any old man Cause they say I do it, ain't nobody caught me Sure got to prove it on me.
