I'm gonna get up in the mornin’
I believe I'll dust my broom
I'm gonna get up early in the mornin’
I believe I'll dust my broom
I'm gonna move away from you, baby
Give my best friend my room
I'm gonna write a letter, telephone every town I know
I'm gonna write a letter, telephone every town I know
If I don't find her in Mississippi
She due in chicago, I know
I believe, I believe my time ain't long
I believe, I believe my time ain't long
I ain't gonna leave my baby
And break up my happy home
And, I don't want no woman
Want every downtown man she meets
No, I don't want no woman
Want every downtown man she meets
Man, she's a no good doney
They shouldn't allow her on the street
