This song is sometimes called
I'm in transition with you baby in St. Louis
or I'll never forget what's her name.
Well I'm in the kitchen
My baby's in the hall
See I'm in the kitchen
My baby's in the hall
Yes, I'm in the kitchen, baby's in the hall
She won't speak to me at all
Cause you know we got, we got the separation blues
Said you see that fly crawling up that wall
Said you see that fly stomping up that wall
Yes, you see that fly crawling up that wall
He won't speak to Miss Spider at all
Cause you know we got, we got the separation blues
When you kick your baby out of bed
Because she won't treat you nice
When you feel mistreated
Said her buddy take my advice
Yes, I'm in the kitchen, baby's in the hall

Leave that woman, and I'll leave her quick
Said leave that woman, and I'll leave her quick
Yes, leave that woman, and I'll leave her quick
And she'll have you on a stick, you know it's better
To leave and get some separation blues
See my clit
Now Adam ate the apple
Which Eve did feed
Yes, Adam ate that apple
Which Eve did feed
Yes, Adam ate the apple
Which Eve did feed
The Lord said Adam you gotta leave
Now you know that gave him
Gave him the separation blues
Now the last words that poor John the Baptist said
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Said the last words of Adam
John the Baptist said
Ba, ba, da, ba, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da
Yes, the last words was that poor John the Baptist said
Last words that John the Baptist said, just before he lost his head,
gives me, gives me the separation blues.
All this goes to prove since time began what those women can do to men.
It's better to buy than to be sold to the gutter for a bottle of gin.
Again, if she don't treat you like you think she should.
Said if she don't treat you like you think she should.
Yes, if she don't treat you like you think she should,
your services ain't no longer any good.
Well, it's time you got a dose of separation.
Separation said time you got a dose of separation blues.
Separation said time you got a dose of separation blues.
Separation said time you got a dose of separation blues.
