Well, now it gettin' late on into the evenin'

And I feel like, like blowin' my home

When I woke up this mornin' all I, I had was gone

Now it gettin', late on into the evenin', man now

I feel like, like blowin' my home

Well now, woke up this mornin', all I had was gone Well, brooks run into the ocean, the ocean run in, into the sea

But don't find my baby, somebody gonna sure bury me

Brooks run into the ocean, man, that ole ocean ran into the sea

Well now, if I don't find my baby

Somebody sure gonna bury me Well, minutes seemed like hours, an hour don't it seem like days?

Seems like my baby would stop her old evil way

Minutes seemed like hours, an hour seemed like days

Well now, seems like my baby child, whoo-hoo well, child

Would stop her low down ways
