Iâm not fit
To be in the company of women.
I drink a bit,
I smell like the jungles of India
I curse and I spit,
I know Iâm gonna be mean to ya
Iâm not fit,
To even be anywhere near ya
Donât be down on me
Donât be down on me
Donât be down, down on me
Donât be down on me
I had a gal,
I left her on Strawberry Hill
I shouldâve stuck around,
And helped her pay the electric bill
I left her lights
Burning all night long down there
And it ainât right if you ainât gonna pay your share
Donât be down on me
Donât be down on me
Donât be down, down on me
Donât be down on me
Iâve had my fortunes told,
Iâve had my time unrolled,
And I donât want to die alone
So, take me home, take me home,
Take me home⦠tonight
Iâm no good,
at asking please or saying thank you
Iâll lick your knife,
and butter your toast with a rusty spoon
Iâll talk all night and
I wonât even tell you how pretty you are
Iâm impolite, Iâll drink you up in a dirty jar
Donât be down on me
Donât be down on me
Donât be down, down on me
Donât be down on me
