Bedside Blues

I ain't going to be your lowdown dog no more

And I ain't going to be your lowdown dog no more

I'll get me a good gal most any place I go

And I walked all night long my feet got soaking wet

Walked all night long my feet got soaking wet

And I haven't walked up on my good gal yet

Well mama mama what's the matter now

Well mama mama what's the matter now

Trying to quit your daddy honey and you don't know how

I'm going I'm going and your crying won't make me stay

I'm going I'm going and your crying won't make me stay

Honey the more you cry the further I'm going away

I don't like no woman got hair like drops of rain

I don't like no woman got hair like drops of rain

Because the girl I like got hairs like horse's mane

That's what my mother told me just before she died

That's what my mother told me just before she died

Son your trouble ain't now but it sure be after a while

Well I fell down on my knees and

I fell down on my knees and cried

I fell down right by my mama's side

Well son son there's one thing I want you to do

Well there's one more thing son that I want you to do

And then these women sure take care of you
