Plenty of places to hide things here if you want to hide them bad enough.
I'm staying with Aunt Sally, but you know she's not really my Aunt
Some of these mem'ries you can learn to live with and some of 'em you can't.

The ladies down in Darktown, they're doing the Darktown strut
You always got to be prepared, but you never know for what
There ain't no limit to the amount of trouble women bring
Love is pleasing, love is teasing. Love, not an evil thing.
Sugar baby, get on down the road, ain't got no brains, nohow

Every moment of existence seems like some dirty trick
Happiness can come suddenly and leave just as quick
Any minute of the day the bubble can burst
Try to make things better for someone sometimes you just end up
making it thousand times worse.
Sugar baby, get on down the road, ain't got no brains, nohow
You went years without me; might as well keep going now
Your charms have broken many a heart and mine is surely one
You got a way of tearing the world apart, love, see what you've done
Just as sure as we're living, just as sure as you're born,
Look up, look up, seek your Maker, 'fore Gabriel blows his horn
Sugar baby, get on down the line, you ain't got no sense, nohow
You went years without me; might as well keep going now
