Changed The Lock On My Door Lyrics by Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee

0

My baby done changed
Yes, she done changed the lock on the door
Oh, my baby done changed
She done changed the lock on the door
Well, she says, 'Sonny Terry, that key you got me
Won't fit that lock no more'
I come home last night by half past ten
I tried to get the key in the lock and I couldn't get it in
'Cause she done changed
Oh, she done changed the lock on the door
She says, 'Sonny Terry, I done told you the key you got me
Won't fit that lock no more'
You know I got mad and I walked down the halfway no looking
I said, she done changed the lock on the door, I don't like that
I walked around and went on peeping on
I walked round to her window to see what I could see
She was kissing another man and I know it wasn't me
'Cause she done changed
Oh, she done changed the lock on the door
Well, she says, 'Sonny Terry, that key you got me
Won't fit that lock no more'
You know I got mad, I went, I walked
I went to a telephone booth and I called up, you know here's what I said
I called my baby up, ‽Honey what do you want me to bring?”
She whistled low and easy, ‽Don't bring a doggone thing”
€½'Cause I done changed
I done changed the lock on the door”
Well, she says, 'Sonny Terry, your key you got me
Won't fit that lock no more'
