If it's all night long, mama, if it’s all night long
If it's all night long, mama, Lord, if it's all night long
If you ain’t got no hay, mama, better be on your way
If you ain't got no hay, mama, Lord, you better be on your way
Hitch on my pony, mama, saddle my black mare
You'll find me ridin', mama, Lord, in the world somewhere
In the world somewhere, in the world somewhere
You'll find me ridin', mama, Lord, in the world somewhere
If you haven't any hay, mama, let's go down the road
If you haven’t any hay, mama, let’s go down the road
If it's all night long, if it’s all night long
If it's all night long, mama, if it's all night long
Get your bucket and your basket, let's go to the wood
Don’t find no berries, mama, Lord, got to make lovin' good
If it's all night long, if it's all night long
If it's all night long, mama, if it's all night long
Make me one pallet, mama, make it on the floor
Make it calm and easy, mama, Lord, so nobody'll never know, never...
Nobody'll never know, nobody'll never...
Make it calm and easy, mama, Lord, so nobody'll never...
If it's all night long, if it's all night...
If it's all night long, if it's all night long
Give me one key, mama, to your back door
You'll never be bothered, baby, with me on the front no more
Oh never, never, never, never no more
You will never be bothered, baby, with me on the front no more
If it's all night long, if it's all night...
If it's all night long, if it's all night long
