Got up this mornin', my good gal was gone
Got up this mornin', my good gal was gone
Stood by my bedside, hung my head and, hung my head and moaned
Went down the street, I couldn't be satisfied
Went down the street, I couldn't be satisfied
Had the no no blues, just too mean to, just too mean to cry
Take a mighty crooked woman, treat a good man wrong
Take a mighty crooked woman, treat a good man wrong
Take a mighty crooked woman, treat a good man, treat a good man wrong
Ain't none o' my business, but it sure ain't right
Ain't none o' my business, but it sure ain't right
Take another man's woman, walk the streets all, walk the streets all night
If I mistreat you, I sure don't mean no harm
If I mistreat you, I sure don't mean no harm
I'm a motherless child, don't know right from, don't know right from wrong
I'm a stranger here and just come in your town
I'm a stranger here, I just come in your town
If I ask you for a favour, don't turn me, don't turn me down
I'm long and tall, like a Cannonball
I'm long and tall, like a Cannonball
Take a long tall fellow make a good gal, make a good girl squall
I ain't no gambler, I don't play no pool
I ain't no gambler, I don't play no pool
I'm just a roller, jellybakin', jellybakin' fool
I'm a stranger here, just come on this train
I'm a stranger here, I just come on this train
I long to hear some gal call my, gal call my name
My mama's told me, papa told me too
My mama's told me, papa told me too
Don't let no woman make no fool outa, make a fool outa you
