You're the Man That Stole My Wife

This is perhaps a remnant of a ballad, perhaps no more than a
truculent jingle. I have not found it elsewhere.

No title. Contributed by Miss Mamie E. Cheek of Durham in 1923.

You're the man that stole my wife,
You're the man that stole my wife,
You're the man that stole my wife,
You shouldn't have 'er for to save your life.
