Lonnie Johnson - What Makes You Act Like That? (1930) текст песни

LJ: You the only one I’ve met, baby that’s got something that I can’t get.
What makes you act like that? Oh, what makes you act like that?
That ain’t no way to treat me. What makes you act like that?

CS: Well now, this is my reason. [spoken words]
Every time that I see you, you got something else to do.
That makes me act like that. That’s why I act like that.
That ain’t no way to treat me. That’s why I act like that.

LJ: Now listen to this mama! [spoken words]

LJ: That’s what makes you act like that! [spoken words]

LJ: Now you know just what I’m wild about, mama, you got it but you just ain’t puttin’ out.
What makes you act like that? Oh, what makes you act like that?
That ain’t no way to treat me. What makes you act like that?

CS: Could be I’m not givin’ away anything. [spoken words]
I want some of that dough you got, but you say that you will not.
That’s why I act like that. That’s what make me act like that.
That ain’t no way to treat me. That’s why I act like that.

LJ: Now get a load of this! [spoken words]

CS: Ah, pull that string, boy. Mmmmm. Mm. [spoken words]

LJ: Now baby, you don’t make the others pay, but still you turn me down each and every day.
Why do you act like that? Oh, what makes you act like that?
CS: ‘Cause that’s what I want. [spoken words]
LJ: Baby, that ain’t no way to treat me. What makes you act like that?

CS: ‘Cause, you don’t like my way, why don’t you stay away? [spoken words]
Why do you keep on hangin’ ‘round, when you know that I turned you down?
What makes you act like that? Why do you keep on actin’ like that?
LJ/CS: That ain’t no way to treat me. What makes you act like that?
