Ooh, black Mattie |
Where did you sleep last night? |
Wit’ch yo hair all tangled |
Clothes ain’t fittin' you right |
Wit’ch yo hair all tangled |
Clothes ain’t fittin' you right |
Now, when I had money |
'Hello, sugar pie' |
Now done spent all my money |
'Goodbye country girl' |
Now done spent all my money |
'Goodbye country girl' |
Lord, my heart drips sorrow |
Tears come a-rollin' down |
Now you know by that, baby |
Baby, to leave yo' town |
Now, you know by that, baby |
Think now leave yo' town |
Now, life ain’t worth livin' |
If you ain’t wit' the one you love |
Lord, ain’t worth livin' |
If you ain’t wit' the one you love |
Now, life ain’t worth livin' |
If you ain’t wit' the one you love |
Now, you three times seven |
You know what you wanna do |
Now, the day that you quit me |
I won’t be mad with you |
Now, the day that you quit me |
I won’t be mad with you |
