There's a whole lot of talk around town
About the way you're carrying yourself
Whole lot of talk around town, woman
About the way you're carrying yourself

You're jiving everybody in town
But old B., that's me
I know what you've been putting down

You got a rambling mind
Just don't wanna stay at home
You got a rambling mind, woman
You just don't wanna stay at home
You ain't got no job in town
And I know what you've been putting down

Everybody but me

Everybody wants you, woman
Everybody but me
You've been jiving everybody in town, baby
But I know what you've been putting down

To a dinner show and a dance
You went out late last night, baby
A dinner show and a dance

'Cause I know what you've been putting down

Early this morning, woman
With a new hat, a new dress
And a new pair of shoes
Came home early this morning, woman
With a new hat, a new dress
And a new pair of shoes
You ain't been visiting
Your relatives in town
I know what you've been putting down
