Spanish tuning, with T.J. Green, bass

You know, when my heart get to beat like a hammer, you know, my eyes stayed full of tears
You know, when my heart keep to beatin' like a hammer, baby, you know, my eyes stayed full of tears
Well, you know, my woman ain't gone but twenty-four hours, Lord, but it seemed like a thousand years

Boys, you know, I ain't nothin' but a country boy, 'way down here on Miss Tabbin farm

Hello baby, sure remind me of Miss Stella Mae
Hello baby, sure remind me of Miss Stella Mae
Lord, I get settin' 'round thinkin' about the days, days me and my baby used to go out and play
