Master Charge Songtext

von Albert Collins

My wife has a charge card
That I got her the other day
I owe five hundred dollars
That's just for yesterday
I said, "Honey, here's a present, go out and shop around
Get a couple of dresses and browse around downtown"
She did just what I told her, bought one, two or three
Then came home looking silly, making goo-goo eyes at me

I said, "Did you get your dresses?"
She said, "Yes, one or two
But I had to get me some shoes and I needed
Some jewelry too"
She had $200 dresses
That I could have made and I can't sew
Fifty Dollars pair of shoes
And I thought you so and so
I said, "What about the jewelry?"
As calmly as I could
She said, "Honey, you'll love them
They're pure African wood"

Let's charge it!

She said, "They were $200 and I paid
One and a half"
I just didn't believe it
I was so mad I had to laugh
I could see it in my mind
On a horse like Paul Revere
I check my mail box
'Cause these bills keep coming here.
