|
| You only been gone twenty-four hours
|
| But it seem like a million years
|
| Inez, If I ever mistreat you, mm God knows I don’t mean no harm
|
| Inez, If I ever mistreat you, mm God knows, I don’t mean no harm, no Because I ain’t nothin’but a little country boy
|
| And I’m a-right down over the cotton farm, now
|

|
| You don’t believe, I think I’m nothin’but a clown, now
|
| Inez, I don’t believe you think I’m nothin'
|
| You don’t think I’m nothin’but a little clown
|
| Now, an’I was lookin’for you last night
|
| An’you was way on the other side of town, now
|

| Play for me, ya’all know how it feels, don’t ya Although I know you love me Inez, I know that’s the reason, I keep on hangin’around
|
| Although I know you love me, now
|
| Inez, I know that’s the reason, I keep on a hangin’around, now
|
| Now, but now sooner when I get me some money
|
| I’m gonna leave your bad luck town, now. |
