Awful Fix Blues
 

Hey mama : tell me what have I done
I just seem like you trying : to beat your loving *self on down*

You going to wake up one of these mornings : mama baby and I'll be gone
And you may not never : mama see me in your town no more

Lord I'm a stranger [to you, in here] brownskin : mama I just blowed in your town
And if I ask you for a favor : mama please now don't turn me down

If you get one old woman : you better get you five or six
So if that one happen to quit you : it won't leave you in a awful fix

When I had you little black woman : I tried to do the best I could
Now your little daddy's gone : now who you going to get to chop your wood
