You love me today
And then you gone tomorrow
First you bring me joy
And then you bring me sorrow
I never know
Just what you are thinking of
I don’t want no part time love
You tell me the truth
And then you tell me lies
First you say hello
And then you say goodbye
I never know
What you are thinking of
I don’t want no part time love
Got a sign on my window
Saying it’s full time employment
The work is steady
And there’s full time enjoyment
You got to stay on the place
To please the boss
Seven days a week
And not a Sunday of
Tell me you will
And then you turn around and around
And say you won’t
First you said you do
And then you said you don’t
I never know
Lord
I never know
Just what you are thinking of
I don’t want nobody
I don’t want nobody
I don’t want nobody part time love

Luther Allison (August 17, 1939 – August 12, 1997) was an American blues singer-songwriter and guitarist. He was born in Widener, Arkansas, although some accounts suggest his actual place of birth was Mayflower, Arkansas. Allison was interested in music as a child and during the late 1940s he toured in a family gospel group called The Southern Travellers. He moved with his family to Chicago in 1951 and attended Farragut High School where he was classmates with Muddy Waters’ son. He taught himself guitar and began listening to blues extensively. Three years later he dropped out of school and began hanging around outside blues nightclubs with the hopes of being invited to perform. Allison played with the bands of Howlin’ Wolf and Freddie King, taking over King’s band when King toured nationally. He worked with Jimmy Dawkins, Magic Sam and Otis Rush, and also backed James Cotton. Chicago Reader has called him “the Jimi Hendrix of blues guitar”.
