Listen here, babe

I'm broke an I'm hungry, too

Listen here, babe

I'm broke an I'm hungry, too

And I would like to know, babe

Can I go home wit' you?



My woman have quit me

An she did not say one word

My woman have quit me

She did not say one word

It was nothin' that I did

Just something my baby heard



It was so hard, babe

You left me for somebody else

It was so hard, babe

You left me for somebody else

But I've come to get you

I love you for myself



Listen here, people

Can't you do something for me?

Listen here, people

Can't you do something for me?

Lord, my baby's gone

And no peace can I see



I'm a real good man

Good as I can be

I'm a real good man

Just as good as I can be

Lord, I don't see why

You won't give me three, full meals.
