A woman I love
Took her from my best friend
Some joker got lucky
Stole her back again
But she better come home in my kitchen
Because it’s goin’ to be rainin’ outdoors
Went to the mountain
Far I could see
Some man got my woman
Lonesome blues got me
But she better come home in my kitchen
Because it’s goin’ to be rainin’ outdoors
[break]
My mama’s dead
Papa’s well to be
Ain’t got nobody
To care for me
But she better come home in my kitchen
Because it’s goin’ to be rainin’ outdoors
