[Verse 1]
I don't see why the blues come in my house
Every morning before day
Every time it's coming, it's just about time to get there
My little girl, she done gone away
And her name was Ada Mae
And then I had to say mmmmm
Please, please, please come back to me Ada Mae
Mmmm, oh lord
Please come back to me Ada Mae
Baby if you wanna come back to me this time
I ain't gonna have nothin' else to say
Lookie here girl
I know you don't like me no more
But I'm beggin' you with tears in my eyes
If you're gonna go, tell me goodbye, goodbye
[Verse 2]
You don't have to worry, you don't have to
Don't mistreat me no more, baby
Mmmm, don't mistreat poor Lightnin' no more
You know I can't hardly live, yeah
I can't live no
