Sexist Soul

tim tunes's picture

The sad passing of Teddy made me think of how much I love any song with a gruff soul singer laying down the law to the laydeez..

A particular favourite here is Lou Rawls 'I'll See You When I Git There'

He gives full voice to his feelings about what is going to happen this evening at his 'castle'

1. He'll be there when he 'git's there but
2. 'Be ready'
3. Remember he's 'worked hard'
4. He's ready for 'Good Lovin'' and of course
5. Make sure 'you have got everything you need from the store cos I don't want to go out no more'


What's the chance that
a) He never left the message
b) Within 5 minutes he was back out at 'the store' or
c) It fell on deaf ears as she was round at Teddy's

Any other similar tunes?

Oh yes...

There's this one from Roy ('She was the kind of girl who would trim your toenails at five o'clock in the morning...")


And, the opposite perspective from Marlena ("Let the doorknob hit ya where the dog shoulda bit ya...")
