I learned "Trifling Woman" from Josh Hayes of Watauga County, North Carolina. Josh learned it from the original recording by Frank Proffitt. My instrument is a 5-string gourd banjo, handmade by myself, tuned approximately eBEG♯B.

Lord I've been a working
Working like a dog all day,
Trying to make another dollar
For you to throw away

You spend all my money
You go dressed so fine,
While I wear old rags
And I don't have a dime

You won't bake my bread
You won't cook my beans,
You want to stand on that log road
Where you can be seen

I'd rather be a hanging
Hanging by an old grape vine,
Than to have to spend my days
With you all the time

Lord I've been a working
Working ten hour long days,
Trying to make another dollar
For you to throw away
