Lightnin’ (The Blues Of Lightnin’ Hopkins)

0

[Verse 1]
Now baby, please don't go
Now baby, please don’t go
Now baby, please don't go
Back to New Orleans
You know I love you so, baby
[Bridge]
Don't go, baby
If you go, take me with you
[Verse 2]
You got me way down here
You got me way down here
Now ’fore I be your dog
And make you walk the log
Now baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
[Bridge]
No, don't go, sugar
If you just got to go, take me with you
[Verse 3]
Now don't you call my name
Now don't you call my name
You got me way down here
With a ball and chain
Now baby, please don't go
Baby, please don't go
[Verse 4]
I’ll be your man and gone
I’ll be your man and gone
He left the county farm
He had his shackles on
Now baby, please don't go
Baby, please
[Bridge]
No, I don’t believe she goin'
Play it awhile!
[Verse 5]
Now baby, please don't go
Now baby, please don't go
Now baby, please don’t go
Back to New Orleans
You know I love you so, baby please
[Outro]
No, don't go, baby
If you go, just take me with you
