I Had To Let Her Go Lyrics by Eddie Boyd

The Complete Recordings 1947-1950

1947

I've met a little woman
I've taken her by the hand
We both start to walkin'
We went down in lover lane
But I let her go
Yes I let my baby go
She didn't have time to get it woman
And she clowned everywhere she go
I've taken her out to my home
To meet my mother don't you know
That gal got drunk
And laid out on the floor
I let her go
Yes I let my baby go
She didn't have time to get it woman
And she clownеd everywherе she go
I woke up one morn'
I didn't have another doubt
She said daddy
I got another drink on my mind
She gotta go
Yes I gotta let her go
She didn't have time to get it woman
And she clowned everywhere she go
Now here come my baby
Staggin' all over the street
She didn't find nothing
But to worry me
She gotta go
Yes I gotta let her go
She didn't have time to get it woman
And she clowned everywhere she go
