| When my first wife left me, boy
|
| Put me out on the highway
|
| When my first wife left me, left me
|
| Put me out on the highway
|
| And ever since that day
|
| My life ain’t been the same to me no more
|
| I had a good girl
|
| Good as she could be
|
| I had a good girl, good girl
|
| Good as she could be
|
| But the reason that she left me
|
| I wanted every women that I seen, yes I did
|
| Watch this now:
|
| I’ve been drinkin' and gamblin', drinkin' and gamblin'
|
| Ever since my wife been gone
|
| Drinkin' and gamblin', drinkin' and gamblin'
|
| Ever since my wife been gone
|
| I found the highway
|
| The highway have been my home
|
| Look at here now:
|
| I’m sitting down thinking this morning
|
| 'bout my wife and child
|
| I’m sitting down thinking this morning
|
| Boy, 'bout my wife and child
|
| I wanna go back home so bad
|
| And tell her I just don’t know what to do
|
| I left my wife and my baby
|
| My baby girl was only 4 days old
|
| I left my wife and my baby
|
| And my little girl was only 4 days old
|
| And don’t you know boy just one thing
|
| Lord just keeps on worrying me, yes he do
|
| Look at here what I’m holding:
|
| I hope my little baby girl haven’t learned to count on a man deading
|
| And boy that keeps on worryin' me
|
| Just one thing hurt me so badly
|
| That keeps on worryin' me
|
| I hope my little baby girl haven’t learned to count on a man deading
|
| And Lord and that’s what keep on worryin' me
|
| I wanna go back home
|
| I wanna go back home so bad
|

|
| I wanna get my wife and my baby back again
|
| I wanna go back home to stay, yes yeah
|
| And then I said to my wife
|
| I said «Baby! |
| I ain’t no go drinkin' and gamblin' no more»
|
| I said «Baby, baby! |
| Drikin' and gamblin'

| Drinkin' and gamblin' no more»
|
| I was dead home with you baby
|
| Live like a madman should
|
| I said «Baby! |

|
| How to call me daddy one more time
|
| Baby teach my little baby girl
|
| To call me daddy just one more time
|
| I been gone so long, so long
|
| And she forgot my name
|
| Please teach her
|
| How to call me daddy one more time
|
| Please teach her
|
| That I’m her daddy
|
| Baby…" |
