Ain't No Use - Arthur Prysock, Count Basie

Ain’t no use baby

I’m leaving the scene

Ain’t no use baby

You’re too doggone mean

Yes I’m tired of paying dues

Having the blues

Hitting bad news

Ain’t no use baby

Ain’t no use baby

I’m leaving town

Ain’t no use daddy

I’m putting you down

I’m gonna change my name

Things won’t be the same

Cos I’m tired of playing your game

Ain’t no use baby I tell you ain’t no use

I tried all these years Lord knows I’ve tried

Yes and I cried deep down inside

But daddy why complain

It’s all over and you’re to blame yeah yeah

Ain’t no use baby

Shed them tears

Ain’t no use baby

I cried for years for too many years

You done had your fun

Ain’t no use

Ain’t no use

Ain’t no use daddy

Ain’t no use
