Teach Me Sweetheart Lyrics
Teach me sweetheartCome away
Teach me, sweetheart
Come on past
Brave young batchelors
I'm alone
Teach me, sweetheartMy mother in law was standing by the stove
Hissing like a snake, hissing like a snake
Hissing like a snake
She gave orders to spill my blood
She gave orders
To spill my blood, i thoughtI thought, i thought, and i thought some moreCome away
Teach me sweetheart
Come on past
Brave young bachelors
I'm alone
Teach me, sweetheartMy father in law was lying on his bed
Growling like a dog, growling like a dog
Growling like a dog
He gave orders to spill my blood; he gave orders
To spill my blood, i thoughtI thought, i thought, and i thought some moreCome away
Teach me sweetheart
Come on past
Brave young bachelors
I'm alone
Teach me, sweetheartMy sister in law was sitting on her stoop
Crawing like a crow, crawing like a crow
Crawing like a crow
She gave orders to spill my blood
She gave orders
To spill my blood, i thoughtI thought, i thought, and i thought some moreCome away
Teach me sweetheart
Come on past
Brave young bachelors
I'm alone
Teach me, sweetheartMy brother in law was leaning on the love-seat
Tapping with his tail, tapping with his tail
Purring like a cat
He gave orders to spill my blood
He gave orders
To spill my blood, i thought
