Leavin' the Mornin' |
| See me reelin' this rockin', |
| drunk as I can be |
| man I love tryin' to make a fool out of me |
| I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving, tryin' to find a man of my own. |
| When I get through drinking, |
| gon' buy a Gatlin gun |
| find my man, |
| he better hitch up and run |
| well I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving this morning |
| I’m going to Kansas City to bring Jim Jackson home. |
| I give him all my money, |
| treat him nice as I can |
| he got another woman, |
| wait till I find my man |
| Lord, I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving this morning |
| I’m leaving, trying to find a man of my own |
| I went up Eighteenth Street, |
| found out where the other woman stayed |
| change my man of his triflin' ways |
| I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving this morning. |
| I’m leaving, trying to find a man of my own. |
| I walked down the street, |
| didn’t have on no hat |
| asking everybody I meet where my sweet babe is at |
| I’m leaving this morning, |
| I’m leaving this morning |
| I’m going to Kansas City to bring Jim Jackson home. |
