Jimmy Hughes — Just Ain't Strong As I Used To Be (You Done Fed Me Sumpin') lyrics

Lyrics

You got me sittin' here at home
When I should be on the roam
I used to stand up like a man
And now, I’m eating out of your hand
No, now you done fed me sumpin'
Done rubbed my head with sumpin'
Done filled my bed with sumpin'
Oh, I ain’t like I used to be
I just ain’t as strong as I used to be (Just ain’t strong as I used to be)
I used to go out at night
And come in before daylight
Now I come home and I eat
And all I want to do is sleep
No, now you done fed me sumpin'
Done rubbed my head with sumpin'
Done filled my bed with sumpin'
Oh, I ain’t like I used to be
I just ain’t as strong as I used to be (Just ain’t strong as I used to be)
Must have been the other night
When we had that little ole fight
You told me you wouldn’t be givin' in
That in the end, you would win
Lord have mercy
Now you done fed me sumpin', done rubbed my head with sumpin'
Now you done filled my bed with sumpin'
Guess that time has come around
I’m before the sun go down
Sitting here talkin' to you
Instead of doing what I used to do
Lord, now you done fed me sumpin'
Done rubbed my head with sumpin'
Done filled my bed with sumpin'
Oh, I ain’t like I used to be
I just ain’t as strong as I used to be
(Not like I used to be)
No, no, no (Just ain’t strong as I used to be)
(Not like I used to be)
(Just ain’t strong as I used to be)
