Treat Me Rough 1930 'Girl Crazy'

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 13 Aug 2003

When I was born,
they found a silver spoon in my mouth;
I had a barber just to curl my hair.
If winter came,
the mater carried me to the South;
the point is that I had the best of care.
Women and headwaiters fawned on me.
Life was just a bore till it dawned on me
that if I'd ever want to be a man among men,
I'd have to be manhandled now and then.
So!

Treat me rough, muss my hair,
don't you dare to handle me with care.
I'm no innocent child, baby,
make me woolly and wild.
Treat me rough, pinch my cheek,
kiss 'n' hug 'n' squeeze me
till I'm weak.
I've been pampered enough, baby,
keep on treating me rough.

Treat me rough, muss my hair,
don't you dare to handle me with care.
I'm no innocent child, baby,
make me woolly and wild.
Treat me rough, pinch my cheek,
kiss 'n' hug 'n' squeeze me
till I'm weak.
I've been pampered enough, baby,
keep on treating me rough.
