INTRO

I don't want none of you women, to be frettin' and cryin'
I don't want none of you women, to be frettin' and cryin'
If you ain't got no man, I'll give you one of mine

My mama told me, before I left home
My mama told me, before I left home
"You better let them Jacksonville men alone."

Some women want a yalla, and some women want brown
Some women want a yalla man, and some women want brown
I know a black man will beat you but he sure won't th'ow you down

SOLO

Please let me ride your train, I know you worry, too
Please let me ride your train, I know you worry, too
I'm a heartbroken woman, with the Ashley Street blues
