Lord, the little woman I'm lovin' wouldn't have no right to pray

And I went to the mountain, lookin' far as my eyes could see
And I went to the mountain, lookin' far as my eyes could see
Some other man got my woman and the lonesome blues got me

Had to fold my armes and I slowly walked away
Had to fold my armes and I slowly walked away
And I said in my mind, Yo' trouble gon' come someday

And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
And I rolled and I tumbled and I cried the whole night long
Boy, I woke up this mornin', my biscuit roller gone

Now run here baby, set down on my knee
Now run here baby, set down on my knee
I wanna tell you all about the way they treated me
