Lord, you're gonna be sorry, ever done me wrong
Gon' be sorry, Lord, you ever done me wrong
Gon' be too late, baby Lord, an' I'll be gone

Lord, don't come here runnin', Lord, baby, screamin' and cryin'
Don't come here runnin' now, honey Lord, screamin' and cryin'
Lord, you got a home, you got a home, baby, Lord, long as I got...

Me an' my white dog started, baby, walkin' out in Jackson Park
Me an' my white dog started, honey, walkin' out in Jackson Park
It takes a man's appetite, Lord. honey, hear my white dog bark

You now, I'm goin' to Memphis, babe, I'm gonna stop on Ethan Street
You now, I'm goin' to Memphis, baby, I'm gonna stop on Ethan Street
I want some of you women, I want some of you women, please show me reach and peak
so I won't be dodging every, every long tall man I meet

Let me tell you something baby, honey please don't crowd your mind
Let me tell you something, Lord, please don't crowd your mind
(Spoken: "Now, don't fret")
First thing you know, baby, you be goin' a penny 'gainst your plight

Lord, I start to holler loud, but I believe, I belive I will, mama, Lord
Lord, I start to holler, believe I will, mama
