Man, you won't give me no money, you won't buy me no clothes to wear
Man, you won't give me no money, you won't buy me no clothes to wear
Want to take me off in France and know I ain't got no business ove there

Tell me man, what do you expect for us poor women to do
Tell me man, what do you expect for us poor women to do
Work and give you all our money and be used like a doggone tool

I'm so glad that I ain't nobody's fool
I'm so glad that I ain't nobody's fool
If I keep any dime of my money, sure got to come under my rule

Know when you was a schoolboy, when you was going to school
Know when you was a schoolboy, when you was going to school
You know if you take my money you be done broke your teacher's rule

I don't mind trying to help you, please don't play me for a fool
I don't mind trying to help you, please don't play me for a fool
Don't forget these last words, you sure got to come under my rule
