and if you say anything about it you´re in trouble with the man

sheriff Benson will arrest you and he´ll crazy you down
and you can bet your bottom dollar penitentiary bound

4. I´m gone away to leave you and my time ain´t long
the man is gonna call me and I´m goin´home
then I´ll be done all my grievin´, woopin´, hollerin´and cryin´
then I´ll be done all my studium `bout my great long time

Refrain

1. Well I woke up this mornin´
looked out the door

cause I had no milk and butter
uh, since my cow is been gone

2. Tried everything baby

but you just---count the days---I´m gone
you´re goin´to need me
need your lovin´daddy, one of these days
yes, you gonna be oh so sorry
