Turpentine Moan

My baby's gone

She runnin' 'round with someone else

My baby's gone

She runnin' 'round with someone else

She won't come back

I just can't help myself

She left last night

Just about half past nine

She left late last night, now

Just about half past nine

Why'd she leave me?

I just can't keep from cryin'

(Yeah, I'm gonna moan a little bit now, hey-ah)

(Yeah, why'd you do that to me, baby)

(Ya know I love you)

(Yeah, I'd do anything you want me to do)

Well, what you gonna do

When your troubles they get like mine?

Well, what you gonna do

When your troubles they get like mine?

You take a mouth full of sugar

Drink a bottle of turpentine

(Hey, come on now)

(Aw, I got trouble)

(Seem like bad luck follow me everywhere I go)

(Now, I want you to remember this, now)

What you gonna do

When your troubles they get like mine?

Well, what you gonna do

When your troubles they get like mine?

(Yeah, I got 'em)

You take a mouth full of sugar

Drink a bottle of turpentine

(Aw, yeah that'll kill everything else, baby)

(Aw)
