Young Woman's Blues

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
