Screamin' Jay Hawkins Fourteen Wives

Fourteen Wives

Fourteen wives ...
They thought I was a fool.
Fourteen wives ...
Didn't know what to do.
Fourteen wives,
I lost my cool.

Please try to understand,
You can't do wrong.
Please try to understand,
You can't do wrong.
Please try to understand,
I would ask you to learn (?)
To be a wife, stay home.

Boogie in the mornin'
Be my lust !
Boogie in the mornin'
Be my lust ...
Hold me baby,
Make my heart burst.
[screaming]

Docter, docter, docter
What is wrong with me ?
{screaming]
Docter, docter, docter
What is wrong withe me.
Docter, docter, docter,
Set me free.

I got a woman,
surely fine.
Don't drink whiskey,
Lots of wine ...
I've got a woman,
loves all night.
She loves stay good,
Makes ye feel right.

Docter, docter, docter
What is wrong with me ?

Don't be wise,
Life is free.
Don't be wise,
All that pain.
Don't be wise,
Told the law I was insane.

Took me to the judge,
He looked in my face.
The judge said, Jay, you're an old disgrace,
You got this woman,
She should be fine.
But every time I see ye,
She'd had lost her mind.

Fourteen wives ...
They thought I was a fool.
I can't understand
I did what I had to do
