Black gal, she took a knife

Scared my brown to death

If I hadn’t a-had my pistol

Think I would-a run, myself

Hadn’t a had my pistol

'Spect I would-a run, myself

When you see me comin'

Heist yo' win-dow high

When you see me leavin'

Hang your head an cry

When you see me leavin'

Hang your head an cry

Now if I just had-a listened

What my ma-ma said

I would-a been at home, Lord

In my feather bed

I would have been at home, Lord

In my feather bed

Got a man, a new man

Kid-man on, yo' kid

Lord, she done got so boogied'

Don’t try to keep it hid

She done got so boogied

Don’t try to keep it hid

Now I got up this mo’nin

Blues all 'round my bed

I turned back my 'kiver'

Blues all in my bed

Turned back my 'kiver'

Blues all in my bed.
