I Don't Know [Finnish translation]

I'm gettin' sick and tired of the way you do,

Good kind papa got to poison you;

Sprinkle goofer dust all around your bed,

Wake up one of these mornings, find your own self dead.

She said, "You shouldn't say that"

I said, "What should I say this time, baby?"

She says, "Mmmmmm, I don't know, my oh my oh my"

I don't know, what my baby puttin' down.

The woman I love, she's got dimples in her jaws,

The clothes she's wearin' is made out of the best of cloths;

She can take and wash them, she can hang 'em upside the wall,

She can throw 'em out the window,

and run out and catch 'em a little bit before they falls;

Sometimes I think you got your habits on

She said, "You shouldn't say that"

I said, 'What should I say to make you mad this time, baby?'

She says, "Mmmmmm, I don't know, my oh my oh my"

I don't know, what my baby puttin' down.

My papa told me, my mother sat down and cried,

Say, "You're too young a man, son, to have the many women you got"

I looked at my mother then, I didn't even crack a smile,

I say, "If the women kills me, I don't mind dyin'"

The woman I love, I won the week before last,

The woman I love I've got out of class;

I thought I won you, baby, a long time ago,

If you don't watch your step, I'm gonna have to let you go.

She said, "You shouldn't say that"

I say, "What did I say to make you mad this time, baby?"

She says, "Mmmmmm, I don't know, I don't know"

I don't know what my baby puttin' down, puttin' down.
