| I was born on a levee
|
| A little bit south of Montgom’ry
|
| Mama worked in the big house
|
| And Daddy he worked for the county
|
| I never had no learnin'
|
| Until I turned 16
|
| When Joe Henry come up the river, y’all
|
| Lord, made a woman outta me (Yes, he did)
|
| Lord, he made a woman outta me (Yeah)
|
| I used to tease Joe Henry
|
| I guess it served me right
|
| Wasn’t long 'til he left me
|
| Cryin' out in the night
|
| Joe Henry had his say
|
| He went and set me free
|
| I need tell everybody
|
| That the man made a woman outta me
|
| Lord, he made a woman outta me (Yeah)
|
| When I think back to that day so long ago
|
| I-I-I get a little feelin' on my mind
|
| Although it hurt me there’s one thing I know
|
| When he left, he left him a woman behind (Behind)
|
| When I meet another young man
|
| Wantin' to love and run (Yeah)
|
| My mind goes back to Joe Henry James
|
| And the heck of a job he done (Uh-huh)
|
| Ain’t no other man let me down
|
| You see I’ve been set free
|
| Ever since way back yonder
|
| When Joe made a woman outta me (Yes, he did)
|
| Lord, he made a woman outta me (He made a woman)
|
| Made a woman outta me (Yeah)
|
| Joe made a woman outta me (Uh-huh-huh)
|
| Lord, he made a woman outta me (Yes, he did)
|
| Joe made a woman outta me (He made a woman)
|
| Lord, he made a woman outta me |
