Now, you can mistreat me, here

But you can't when I go home

You can mistreat me, here

But you can't when I go home

'Cause I got someone there

Will really make you leave me alone

Now, I give you all my money, baby

What mo' can a po' man do?

Give you all my money

Hoo-ooo!

What mo' can a po' man do?

You's a sweet little girl

Baby, but you won't be true

Now, I done tol' you once, now baby

Now, don't have to tell you no mo'

(Take your time now, play it right

for you over in Chicago)

I done tol' you

I don't wanna tell you no mo'

(Tell me what?)

You can get all a-my lovin'

If you let that black man go

(Play that boss man!)

<guitar>

(Yas, yeah)

(Yeah!)

(Yeah!)

Umm-mmm-mm, mmm-mmm-mmmm

Now, my mama tol' me

An my papa start in cryin'

My mama tol' me

And my papa he's startin' cry

(What he said?)

Said, 'Son, you're too young a-man

To have them many womens yourself'

I looked at my mama an papa, now

Now, an I never cracked a smile

(Yes, yes, yes, yes!)

Looked at my mama an papa

An I never cracked a smile

(What about it?)

I said,'The little woman I got kill me

Mama, Lord, I don't mind dyin'

Dee-da, be-ba, ba-ba-ba,
