Put It Right Here (or Keep It Out There) Lyrics - Richland Woman Blues - Maria Muldaur

I had a man for fifteen years 

Give him his room and board 

Once he was like a Cadillac 

Now he's like an old worn out Ford 

He never brought me a lousy dime 

And put it in my hand 

So there'll be some changes from now on 

According to my plan

He's got to get it, bring it, and put it right here 

Or else he's gonna keep it out there 

If he must steal it, beg it, or borrow it somewhere 

Long as he gets it, I don't care 

I'm tired of fryin' pork chops 

To grease his fat lips 

And he has to find another place 

For to park his old hips 

He must get it, and bring it, and put it right here 

Or else he's gonna keep it out there 

The bee gets the honey, and brings it to the corn 

Else he's kicked out of his home sweet home 

To show you that they brings it, watch the dog and the cat 

Everything even brings it, from a mule to a gnat1 

The rooster gets the worm, and brings it to the hen 

That oughta be a tip to all you no-good men 

The groundhog even brings it and puts it in his hole 

So my man has got to bring it, doggone his soul

He's got to get it, bring it, and put it right here 

Or else he's gonna keep it out there 

If he must steal it, beg it, or borr' it somewhere 

Long as he gets it child, I don't care 

I'm gonna tell him like the China man: when you don't bring 'em check 

You don't get 'em laundry, if you break 'em down neck 

You got to get it, bring it, and put it right here 

Or else you gonna keep it out there
