I guess there are different versions of the lyric. In the first, there is no faucet lyric.
The second example has it.
Fine and Mellow
By Billie Holiday
My man he don't love me he treats me oh so mean
My man he don't love me he treats me oh so mean
He's the meanest man that I've ever see
My baby wears high peg pants stripes are really yellow
Baby wears high peg pants stripes area really yellow
When he starts into love me he's so fine and mellow
Love will make you drink and gamble make you stay out all night long
Love will make you drink and gamble make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things that you know is wrong
Do right baby if you stay home every day
I'll do right baby if you stay home every day
You're so mean and evil I know you're gonna drive me away
Why did he leave me why did he have to go
Why did he leave me why did he have to go
Went off and left me baby I loved him so
I'll be a good wife to you if it means anything to you
I'll stay home every night and I'll love you
And kiss you every night and one of these days
If you're good to me honey one of these day
If God is good to me I'll bring you a little burny
Come back to me baby try me one more time
Cos without your loving I swear I'm gonna lose my mind
Fine And Mellow
My man don't love meTreats me Oh so meanMy man he don't love meTreats me awful meanHe's the lowest manThat I've ever seenHe wears high draped pantsStripes are really yellowHe wears high draped pantsStripes are really yellowBut when he starts in to love meHe's so fine and mellowLove will make you drink and gambleMake you stay out all night longLove will make you drink and gambleMake you stay out all night longLove will make you do thingsThat you know is wrongBut if you treat me right, babyI'll stay home every dayBut if you treat me right, babyI'll stay home every dayBut you're so mean to me, babyI know you're gonna drive me awayLove is just like a faucetIt turns off and onLove is like a faucetIt turns off and onSometimes when you think it's on, babyIt has turned off and gone
PEACE.
