by
recording of early 1930's
from
Stop & Listen (Yazoo 2006)
I had a girl, she was just that kind
I thought I would make her mine
But when I looked the matter through, she was the worst of kind
She ain't no good,
oh, she ain't no good
When I come to find her out, I found she was no good
Some men like the country girl,
mine's gonna live in town
A towns girl will be lovin' you,
when the country girl messes around
She ain't no good,
oh, she ain't no good
When you see'em brother, lives in the woods, you know she ain't no good
A girl town girl will get one man,
and always treat him well
But a country girl will get her ten men,
and give them all hell
She ain't no good,
oh she ain't no good
She once left a man in the neighborhood, you know she ain't no good
A yeller cow
drinks the corn whiskey,
browns can't do the same
The country girl get a two'a brown meal,
but she's getting drunk just as well
She ain't no good,
oh, she ain't no good
She left a man in the neighborhood, you know she ain't no good
I went to the country, a good haul,
and only one night I spent
I got up the next morning, and come back home, been runnin' ever since
Oh, she ain't no good,
oh, she ain't no good
Deliver me, from a country girl, before she ain't no good

Note 1: yeller cow, probably not what he sings, but sounds like it. Any suggestions anyone?
