Charley Patton - It Won't Be Long lyrics

I believe mama I do like she say, baby
Lord, I believe mama I do like she say, baby
Go'n to cook my supper, Lord
Put me in her bed

You ever go down Memphis, stop by Minglewood
Babe you ever go down to
Memphis, stop by Minglewood, baby
You, Memphis women, don't mean no man no good

She's got a man on her man
Got a kid on her kid, baby
She's got a man on her man
Got a kid on her kid, baby
Done got so bold, Lord, won't keep it hid
Ah, all right, ain't going to be here long
Baby
Ah, all right, ain't going to be here long
Baby ah, all right, ain't gonna be here long

I believe mama sure was kind to me, baby
I believe sweet mama sure was kind to me
Baby
She's up at night like a police on his beat

I'll tell you something, keep it to yourself
Baby i'm gonna tell you something
Keep it to yourself, baby
Please, don't tell your husband, Lord
And no one else

She's got a long tall woman
Tall like a cherry tree, baby
She's got a long tall woman
Tall like a cherry tree, baby
She gets up before day and she
Puts that thing on me
