Lyrics

Woke up this mornin' When chickens was crowin' for day Felt on the right side of my pillar My man had gone away By this pillar He left a note reading "I'm sorry, Jane, you got my goat No time to marry, no time to settle down" I'm a young woman and ain't done runnin' 'round I'm a young woman and ain't done runnin' 'round Some people call me a hobo Some call me a bum Nobody knows my name Nobody knows what I've done I'm as good as any woman In your town I ain't no high yeller I'm a deep killer of brown I ain't gonna marry Ain't gonna settle down I'm gonna drink good moonshine And rub these browns down See that long lonesome road Lord, you know it's gotta inn And I'm a good woman And I can get plenty men
