Shorty George, he died on the road
Tell me, Shorty George, he died on the road
He died with a sad, broke, aching heart

If I leave here walking, who's gonna follow me?
If I leave here walking, who's gonna follow me?
If I leave here walking, who's gonna follow me?

Why I love you, babe, just can't help myself
Well, I love my babe, just can't help myself
I'd rather be with you, woman, anybody else

Tell me, babe, where did you stay last night?
Won't you tell me, mama, where'd you stay last night?
You went to come in, home, with your shoes weren't on you right

She says, "Now Daddy, Daddy don't raise no sand.
Look-a-here now, Daddy, Daddy don't raise no sand.
I don't ask you 'bout no woman, don't ask me about no man."

If I feel tomorrow, like I feel today
If I feel tomorrow, like I feel today
Well I won't be here, but somewhere on my way

If I leave here runnin', who's gonna follow me?
If I leave here runnin', who's gon' follow me?
If I leave here walkin', no one to follow me

In the Spring, in the Spring, when the birds begin to sing
It's the only time, you ever gon' dog me 'round
