If You Want to Keep Your Daddy Home - Alberta Hunter

What’s the use to worryin' yourself sick

If your man starts running 'round, gal, don’t kick

'Cause what it takes to keep him home

You have got it, you alone

Simple as one-two

All you’ve got to do

If you want to keep your daddy home

You can do it with ease

Get a book and learn how loving’s done

Make him think the moon’s green cheese

When he gets home, give him a shout

Hug and kiss him 'til he’s falling out

Every man will tumble for a woman’s looks

So imitate the pictures in the fashion books, Lord

That’s my policy, and it may

Help you keep your daddy home to stay

Keep your daddy home

If you want to keep your daddy home

I’ll tell you what to do

Get a stick and hit him right across his dome

Let him know just who is who

If your rough treatment fails you, then

He’s a man just like all other men

There’s a way that you can call his hand

Let him see you hug and kiss with another man, Lord

That’s my policy, and it may

Help you keep your daddy home to stay

Keep your daddy home
