My baby done quit me : talked all over town
And I'm too good a man : for to let that talk go around
Take the shoes I bought her : bare foots on the I say ground
One these days : Jack Frost said he sure going to tear you down
Now Mr Mr : please spare my life
I got four little children : I got one *bald‑*headed wife
If I should die : in the state of Arkansas
I want you to send my body : home to my mother‑in‑law
Said if she don't want it : baby give it to my ma
Said if my ma don't want it : baby give it to my pa
Said if my pa don't want it : baby give it to Abby Lee
Said if Abby don't want it : say give it to my used‑to‑be
Said if she don't want it : baby cast it in the sea
Then these squabbling women in Greenville : will stop squabbling over me
Said I won't be worried : with these blues no I say more
Said it's traintime now : *said that* ring I did adore
