| My Lady and me fought our way free from a shanty town,
|
| parades of the blues were in every night,
|
| we slipped out of town with the morning’s light.
|
| My Lady and me wanted to see if we’d settle down,
|
| we’re still on the make with a one man show,
|
| gets harder to take everyday we go,
|
| and when will it end, oh we just don’t know.
|
| A half dozen ladies tried to change my life-style,
|
| promises and maybe, lead me astray, almost took me away.
|
| And we’re ready, and were waiting patiently,
|
| for the time to come and be for my Lady and me.
|
| Last night I had a thought of a house in the country,
|
| but this day is just another with everything in front of me,
|
| and my Lady doesn’t like it, but she won’t say nothin' to me,
|
| we’ve been out here learnin' to love for a long time,
|
| and we’re ready, yes we’re waiting patiently,
|
| for the time to come and be for my Lady and me.
|
| Oh, my Lady,
|
| Oh, my Lady,
|
| Oh, my Lady,
|
| Oh, my Lady,
|
| Oh, my Lady,
|
| Oh, my Lady and me fought our way free from a shanty town,
|
| parades of the blues were in every night,
|
| we slipped out of town with the morning’s light.
|
| My Lady and me wanted to see if we’d settle down,
|
| we’re still on the make with a one man show,
|
| gets harder to take everyday we go.
|
| and when it will end, oh we just don’t know.
|
| and when it will end, oh we just don’t know
|
| and when it will end, oh my Lady. |
