There's a red house over yonder
That's where my baby lives
There's a red house over yonder, baby
That's where my baby stays
I ain't been home to see my baby,
In about ninety nine and one half days

Wait a minute, something's wrong, boy
The key wont unlock the door
Well, wait a minute, something's wrong, babe
The key wont unlock the door
I got a bad, bad feeling,
That my baby don't live here no more

That's allright, I still got my guitar
Look out

I might as well go back over yonder
Go back yonder 'cross the hill
Oh, I might as well go back over yonder, baby
Over yonder 'cross the hill
(That's where I came from, yeah)
'Cause if my baby don't love me no more,
I know her sister will
