|
| 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, 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 |
