MEMPHIS MINNIE
"Wants Cake When I'm Hungry"

I wants cake when I'm hungry, "lightnin' " when I'm dry
I wants cake when I'm hungry, "lightnin' " when I'm dry
And some good man to love me, and heaven when I die

Don't nobody want you when you're stumbling all alone
Don't nobody want you when you're stumbling all alone
You can find anything that'll wreck your happy home

I was up this morning, going from door to door
I was up this morning, going from door to door
Just sitting down wondering which away did my good man go

How a man expects for a woman to do right when he won't do right himself?
How a man expects for a woman to do right when he won't do right himself?
Well, it ain't no woman don't get tired of staying home all the time by herself

Call me, baby, call me around about 3
Call me, baby, call me around about 3
I'm having chills and fever and the doggone jinx got me
