Ohhhh, I was lying in the bed with fever |
|
And I was, burning up inside |
|
My baby walked, in my bedroom |
|
And I could hardly open my eyes |
|
She said that she was going to the pawnshop |
|
Just across the track |
|
She started packing some clothes in a hurry |
|
And then she said she would be right back |
|
But I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since that day, yeah |
|
Well I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since she went away |
|
I remember so well when she slammed the door |
|
But the girl didn't make it back no more |
|
I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since that day |
|
Well, I waited for 24 hours, and I was just about to starve to death |
|
It didn't look like she was comin' back, so I had to look out for myself |
|
Well I called, the police department, to find out what they knew |
|
They said, \"No, by heck, but we will get her yet\ |
