I say, my little woman
Got me down to skin an bone
I say, my little woman
Got me down to skin an bone
She done got me to the place
I hate to see my baby leave home

Now, she leave me early mo'nin
She don't come home 'till night
Yeah-hey
She leave me early in the mo'nin
Don't come home 'till night
She know, I know, she done somethin'
Wer'n't 'llowed when she know it ain't right
(in there)

Hmm, think because I love you
Hmm, gon' be yo' dog
Don't think because I love you
I'm gon' be yo' dog
I'll drink muddy water
An I'll roost in a hollow log
(end at 2:30)

Hmm, ain't know why I should
Hmm-hmm, don't know whys I should
'Cause you go wit' ev'ry man
In around the neighborhood

'Play it right, now'

(guitar to end)

'Yeah'
