It's tempting to think of Connie's song as short because they're unfinished demos. I think this one is a clear case where any addition would only cause diminishment. She had the gift of creating songs that are complete thoughts, and no more than they had to be. And yet there's room for ambiguity, at least for me. Is it an expression of her own distaste for simple men, or was she faulting women who forsake love for money?
Her guitar accompaniments were phenomenal too, as a close listen to this one will show.
