INTRO

Well, babe, here I am, babe, I'm all alone, by myself
Well, babe, here I am, mama, I'm all alone by myself
Well, my sweet woman have quit me, aw, then again she's goin' with somebody else

Well, well, my little woman, she's fast now, as a passenger train
Hoo-hoo-oo, and now she's fast as a passenger train
Well, she will tell you, "Go and get your woman, buddy, I have gone and got my man."

Well, well, babe, your best friend, better not go break up your happy home
Hoo-hoo-oo, your best friend, mama, done gon' break up your happy home
Well, won't see your mistakes, little mama, baby, hoo-hoo, well, Lord, until your daddy's gone

SOLO

Well, now, my Mama she told me, when I was a child
Hoo-hoo-uh, Mama, now she told me, when I was a child
She said, "Son, now you is too big a devil, uh-now to be so foolish and wild."

Too late, too late, too late, mama, now you drove me from your door
Hoo-hoo, babe, now you drove me from your door
Well, well, now, I says, "You did not want me, mama, baby, honey, I can't use you no more."
