Oh, my baby Just about good huggin' size Oh, my baby Just about good huggin' size Lord, if anybody was to take her I b'lieve to my soul, I'd die
Lord, I try to give that little woman Ev'rything that she tells me she need Try to give that little woman Ev'rything that she tells me she need But she would hold her a conversation With ev'ry lowdown dirty man she meet
That little woman she won't wash not nothin' She won't even iron my clothes Lord have mercy, now! That little woman she won't even wash nothin' She won't even iron me no clothes She won't do nothin' I tell her But keep them big feets in the road
I ain't gon' tell you, baby About the way you do 'Take your time, play the thing right' I ain't gon' tell you Mama, 'bout the way you do But I swear the way you do It keeps on worryin' me
Now, I used to have a woman Now-now, an she go'd down In this white man's town I used to have a woman Just as go down in this town But I caught her two-timin' me An I swear, turn her damper down.
