People Sure Act Funny Lyrics by Lee Dorsey

0

[Chorus]
People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Woah yeah (Yes they do)
[Verse 1]
I knew you when you lived in a hut
You made your living from the cane you cut
But now you’re living on-a easy street
You pass me by and you won’t even speak
[Chorus]
Now people surе act funny
When they get a littlе money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Woah yeah (Yes they do)
[Verse 2]
I knew you when you didn’t have no shoes
Your whole family sung the low down blues
But now you’re grinning like a Cheshire Cat
It’s cos your pockets is big and fat
[Chorus]
Now people sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
People sure can squeal
When they grab hold of a dollar bill
Don’t they be? (Yes they do)
Woah yeah (Yes they do)
[Verse 3]
I knew you when I was your friend
I stuck with you through thick and thin
You hit the numbers then you put me down
I’m here to tell you that the chase is going around
[Chorus]
People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
People sure act funny
When they get a little money
Don’t they baby? (Yes they do)
Woah yeah (Yes they do)
[Outro]
Don’t they baby? (yeah yeah)
Don’t they baby? (yeah yeah)
Don’t they baby? (yeah yeah)
Oh yeah (yeah yeah)
Oh yeah (yeah yeah)
Don’t they baby? (yeah yeah)
Don’t they baby? (yeah yeah)
Oh yeah
