Broke and Hungry (Take 2) |
I’m broke and hungry, ragged and dirty too |
I said I’m broke and hungry, ragged and dirty too |
Mama, if I clean up, can I go home with you? |
I’m motherless, fatherless, sister and brotherless too |
I said I’m motherless, fatherless, sister and brotherless too |
Reason I’ve tried so hard to make this trip with you |
You miss me woman, count the days I’m gone |
You miss me woman, count the days I’m gone |
I’m goin' away to build me a railroad of my own |
I feel like jumpin' through a keyhole in your door |
I said I feel like jumpin' through the keyhole in your door |
If you jump this time, baby, you won’t jump no more |
I believe my good gal have found my black cat bone |
I said I believe my baby have found my black cat bone |
I can leave Sunday mornin', Monday mornin' I’m slippin' 'round home |
I wanna show you women what careless love have done |
I wanna show you women what careless love have done |
Caused a man like me, steal away from home |
Girl if you don’t want me, why don’t you let me know? |
I said, if you don’t want me, mama let me know |
So I can leave at once and hunt me somewhere else to go |
