Sweet girls, sweet girls, / Listen here to me.
All you sweet girls, / Listen here to me:
Gin an' whiskey / Kin make you lose yo' 'ginity.
I used to be a good chile, / Lawd, in Sunday School.
Used to be a good chile --
Always in Sunday School, / Till these licker-headed rounders / Made me everbody's fool.
Good girls, good girls, / Listen here to me.
Oh, you good girls, / Better listen to me:
Don't you fool wid no men cause / They'll bring you misery.
