Now I don't want no, no skinny woman, I want the woman, she got a-plenty of, Lord
I don't want no skinny woman, I want some, a woman with a-plenty a-meat
Now, we can
roll
all night long, an' this woman, won't have to stop 'n eat
Well I've got so, so many women, now an' I don't know who I love
Yes Lord, I 've got me, so many women, til I'm, I really don't know who I love
Now an' it seems like the girl I been cravin' for, slipped away to the good Lord, up above
I have the blues, blues in the mo'nin, blues is the first thing, when I lay down
An' Lord I have, the blues in the mo'nin, blues is the first thing when I lay down at night
Now that's the reason my baby worries me, my baby she don't treat me right
Now if you take me, take me back, baby, now an' I won't do you mean no mo', oh Lord
If you just forgive me this time, I won't never do you mean no mo'
Now that you been get all-a my labor, love n' you, just let Mister So an' So, go
Now she is gone, she is gone but she'll fer'ever be on my mind, oh Lord
I, she gone, she's gone, she'll for'ever be on my mind
Now she was a sweet little woman, she just, wouldn't be lovin' n' kind
Here is the table of contents.
