[Verse 1]
Well now lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, Miss Clawdy
Girl, you sure look good to me
Well, please don't excite me baby
Know it can't be me
[Verse 2]
Because I gave you all my money
Girl, but you just won't treat me right
You like to ball in the mornin'
Don't come back till late at night
[Verse 3]
I'm gonna tell, tell my mama
Girl I'm gonna tell her what you doing to me
I'm gonna tell everybody
That I'm down in misery
[Piano and Saxophone Solos]
[Verse 4]
Well lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, Miss Clawdy
Girl you sure look good to me
You just wheel and rockin' baby
Just as fine as you can be
[Verse 5]
Well so bye, bye-bye, baby
Girl, I won't be comin' no more
Bye darlin', I'm dying
Down the road I go
