When I woke up this mornin',
Had a smile run across my face;
My baby from town just had to get down—
Come and drag me all over the place...
Got a job on a flatbed trailer truck,
Down on Highway Fifty-Nine;
I had the blues, and my baby, she knew—
She's holdin' a little piece of mine...
Down Brownie—
My Brownie downtown;
Down Brownie....
Done my share in all the black-hand cotton fields
Just to try and keep myself alive.
Eatin' red beans and rice; with the right sauce, it's nice—
Or anything you wanna try...
Now I'm hitchin' a ride back from Brownie's;
I'm kind of sad but I feel alright...
The cold night, it stings, but I got me some wings—
I'll be flyin' into Houston tonight.
