| Well, I really had a fall last night
 | 
| I held all the pretty girl tight
 | 
| I was feelin' single but seein' double
 | 
| And wound up in a whole lotta trouble
 | 
| The day I face a big fight
 | 
| But I really had a fall last night
 | 
| I came home from work this mornin'
 | 
| My little womans was a-feelin' low
 | 
| She told me what was on her mind
 | 
| And she told me where I could go
 | 
| Well, I didn’t go where she told to to
 | 
| 'Cause the water was cold in the lake
 | 
| There’s something fishy 'bout this whole deal
 | 
| I’m gonna see where I made a mistake
 | 
| Well, I really had a fall last night
 | 
| I held all the pretty girl tight
 | 
| I was feelin' single but seein' double
 | 
| And wound up in a whole lotta trouble
 | 
| The day I face a big fight
 | 
| But I really had a fall last night
 | 
| Well, when I opened the door this mornin'
 | 
| Like me the sun was high
 | 
| I started walkin' the long way home
 | 
| Just to think of an alibi
 | 
| Well, I couldn’t think of a doggon thing
 | 
| That I hadn’t already said
 | 
| Guess I better play it by ear
 | 
| For I’m already dead
 | 
| Well, I really had a fall last night
