Yeah, woke up this morning, 'twixt midnight and day
Yeah, woke up this morning gal, 'twixt midnight and day
Yes, I reached over to the pillow where my good gal used to lay
I know I'm not good‑lookin', my teeth don't shine like pearls
Yeah, I'm not good‑lookin', teeth don't shine like pearls
Yeah, so glad good looks don't take you through this world
Yeah, beside my jumpin' mama, I'm her overhaul
Yeah, beside my jumpin' mama, I'm her overhaul
Yeah, my gal done quit me, god knows she had it all
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you mama, lord god I'll tell you true
Yeah, gonna tell you mama, lord I'll tell you true
Well if you don't want me, it's a cinch I don't want you
Yeah, you ever dream lucky, wake up cold in hand
Yeah, you ever dream lucky, wake up cold in hand
Yeah, that's a mighty true sign your gal got some other man
Yeah, my mama told me, yeah my daddy told me too
Oh well, my mama told me, yeah my daddy told me too
Yeah, some jumpin' woman son'll be the death of you
