What Kind of Scent Is This? Lyrics by Bo Carter

Complete Recorded Works In Chronological Order Volume 2 (5 June 1931 To 26 March 1934)

1931

I was at home last night, I was all alone
Long' bout a twelve o' clock, my baby come pullin' in home
Now baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
I mean, what kind of scent is that that you bringin'
Here in my home?
Now I could not sleep the balance of the night
The scent she brought in, it didn't smell just right
Now baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that that you bringin' here
In my home
Now she try to make like it's something we been fryin'
She [needn't come with that junk], said she know she's lyin'
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that that you bringin' here
In my home?
Now, when she come in, she was squeezin' her hand
I b'lieve she been off doin' her job for another man
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that that you bringin' here
In my home?
Now, you come draggin', it ‘twas ‘bout half past twelve
If I do right baby, I'd take a stick and I would give
You hell
‘cause what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that?
Baby, what kind of scent is that that you bringin' here
In my home?
