I woke up this mornin? in a terrible mood,
You talk about a woman treatin? a good man rude
She left me talkin? to myself just a gazin? at that mean old wall.
She had another daddy waitin? down at the end of the hall.
She changes with the weather like the leaves I recall,
She blossoms in the spring but then she?s gone in the fall,
A two timin? woman with a heart of solid stone.
She tells me that she loves me but her heart?s a little under grown.
She said she?d never leave me but she got that urge to roam,
She drifts around the country like a stream-boat on the foam,
Never changes course just travels along that same old way.
I hope she goes a-drift and rolls along back home some day.
Now, if I ever find her, gonna chain her to the floor,
Then tell her: Now sit there woman ?cause you ain?t leavin? no more,
I?m gonna tame you woman till you?re eatin? from my hand.
It ain?t that I don?t love you, honey it?s just to make you understand.
