Say you talkin' 'bout your red ripe tomatoes 

I'm crazy bout my t-bone steak 

Said you talkin' bout your red ripe tomatoes 

I'm crazy bout my t-bone steak 

Said, I'm gonna find me a faror 

To share my Cadillac Eight 

 

I got the railroad blues 

Troubles come ov'r my mind 

I got the railroad blues 

Trouble come ov'r my mind 

And that girl I'm lovin' 

She sho' done left this time 

 

Say if I had ways 

Like a bullfrog on a pond 

Say if I had ways 

Like a bullfrog on a pond 

I would ride right 'chere 

Lie in sweet mama's arms 

 

You love once ain't, forever 

You know babe, two 

Lord, anybod' twice 

Your love once ain't, forever 

You know babe, two 

Lord, anybod' twice 

But you woman all get a good man 

You don't know how to treat him right. 

 

 

note: The 1st verse relates to the last verse of 'That's What My Baby Likes' 

recorded by Lucille Bogan as follows: 

 

'I gets red ripe tomatoes, buy me a T-bone steak 

And if I fix it like he tell me, he'll give me a Cadillac Eight 

That's what my baby likes, that's what my baby likes 

He's crazy about me, and he do let me have my fun.
