Ella Mae Songtext
von Louis Jordan

Everybody was mellow, and feeling fine,
Then in walked Ella, with a word in mind,
Yeah you better stop that music, stop the band,
′Cos somebody in here has got my man.

Ella Mae started lookin', with a frown on her face,
There ain′t nobody, gonna leave this place,
You'd better check your partner right away,
'Cos Ella Mae mean just what she say.


I′m fat and forty, and I sure can′t run,
But there ain't nobody, can outrun this gun,
You′d better check your partner right away,
'Cos Ella Mae mean just what she say.

There′s a ruffle in the corner, and a stir in the crowd,
A slim footed fella, started holllerin' out loud,
Yeah you better stop that music, stop the band,
And Ella Mae said "here comes my man."

Ella Mae Ella Mae, here comes your man,
Ella Mae Ella Mae, Ella Mae here comes your man,
Ella Mae Ella Mae, Ella Mae here comes your man.
