Lyrics Take Me Back - Corey Harris

Take Me Back

Aw babe, take me back
Won’t do nothing, baby, you don’t like
Tote your water and cut your wood
Make a little fire, baby, if I could
Well, I went down that railroad track
Begging my baby to take me back
Take me back, baby, one more time
Won’t do nothing to worry your mind
Take me back
Yeah, I won’t do nothing to worry your mind
Yeah, I’ll do all the cooking and the cleaning
And the sewing and the ironing too, yeah, mmmm hmmmm
Well, I got a girl, her name’s is Marge
Works over yonder in the rich folk’s yard
Rustle me a chicken, baby save me the wing
Think I’m working, n' ain’t doin' a thing
Aw baby, take me back
Won’t do nothing, baby, you don’t like
Tell you the one thing, babe, that grieves my mind
My woman quit me in the winter time
Goin' down to a distant land
Get a hundred dollars from the rich man’s hand
The rich man’s hand, the rich man’s hand
A hundred dollars from the rich man’s…
Yeah, I know he got the money, got to give it up now
Mmmm hmmm, won’t do nothin', baby, you don’t like
