Worn Down Daddy

by recording of 1927 from Complete Recorded Works, Vol. 4 (1927-1938) (Document 5325) The time has come for us to part I ain't goin' to cry, it won't break my heart 'Cause I'm through with you, and I hope you don't feel hurt You're a like an old horse shoe, that's had its day You're like an old shoe, I must go away I'm through with you, and I hope you don't feel hurt You're like an old ship, that sprung a leak You ain't young no more, and your loving is weak Now you know I'm through with you, and I hope you don't feel hurt You ain't got no money, you are down and broke You're just an old has-been, like a worn-out joke Say I'm through with you, and I hope you don't feel hurt
