So Is Your Old Lady Lyrics - Ruth Etting

So Is Your Old Lady (1926) 

Said Mr Jiggs to Mrs Jiggs, I've got to go out tonight. 

Said Mrs Jiggs to Mr. Jiggs, Why honey it's quite alright. 

Don't be afraid to grieve me, be on your way! 

I know you hate to leave me, but it's okay. 

You've got to go out, you've got a big date 

You've got to go out, you're coming home late 

And so is your old lady. 

You've got a sick friend who's got to be watched 

You're taking along a bottle of Scotch 

And so is your old lady. 

And while you're telling some baby you're lonesome 

Don't think I'm home by my own-some. 

You're getting too gay, you're getting too hot. 

You're getting away with a terrible lot. 

So is your old lady.

You're looking around for somebody new. 

You're looking for love, and getting it too 

And so, so is your old lady. 

You're spending your dough, you're writing out checks. 

You're hanging around the opposite sex. 

And so, so, so's your old lady. 

And while you're out on your nightly vacation, 

I'm getting my consolation. 

You're having your fling, you're having your fun. 

You're getting to be a son-of-a-gun. 

So, so is your old lady. 

You're getting too cranky, getting too cross 

You're wondering how to get a divorce 

And so, so is your old lady. 

You're learning to tongue and learning to step 

You're full of new life and full of new pep 

And so, so is your old lady.

Though you don't think I'm as young as I was, dear, 

I know somebody who does, dear. 

You're starting to flirt and starting to fall 

You're acting like you wasn't married at all 

And so, so is your old lady. 

And every hair that I find on your shoulder 

Just makes me bolder and bolder. 

You're slipping away, you're losing your hold 

You're losing your head, you're losing control 

And so, so is your old lady.
