Who’s Been Fooling You (1953)
Professor Longhair
Tell me pretty baby
Who’s been fooling you?
I wanna get you straight honey
I don’t like the way you do
To me you look so sad and lonesome
Have your lover put you down?
To me you look so sad and lonesome
Have your lover put you down?
Twas you needing help baby
You are the saddest girl in town
I can see your clothes all raggedy
And your feets need shoesing
[?] drink or gamble
That’s why you look so bluesy
Tell me pretty baby
Is everything alright?
If you don’t see me this evening
Dig me tomorrow night
[Tenor sax solo]
I know it hurts you baby
But I’ve gotta kill for you
What’s gonna make you happy
Is a man that’s really true
Tell me pretty baby
Who’s been fooling you?
If we can get together
I could make your dreams come true
