I'm sick, broke, and hungry, good gal done drawed me away
I'm sick, broke, and hungry, good gal done drawed me away
I'm outdoors, mama, ain't got nowhere to stay

And that woman I love, she done pushed me down
That woman I love, she done pushed me down
It wouldn't worry my mind, but the news 'all over town

I got a woman 'Cincinnati, one in Tennessee
Th' Woman in George is, good enough for me
My good gal quit me, 'd like to kill me dead
I wake up every morning, blues all around my head

Can't see why, mama, you treat me like you do
Can't see why, mama, you treat me like you do
If you don't want me, sayin' I don't want you

You 'buked, dogged me, drove me from your door
You 'buked, dogged me, drove me from your door
Told me to my face, you don't want me no more

I was standing at the station, waiting for my train
Standing at the station, waiting for my train
Outdoors, sleeping in the rain

Pretty mama, pretty mama, honey what's on your mind?
Tell me pretty mama, honey what's on your mind?
Say, you can't quit me, ain't no need of tryin'
