Looking For My Woman by Blind Boy Fuller Lyrics

My baby packed her suitcase, and she started to the train
She's a married woman but I love her just the same

Now I was standing here lonely, with my head hangin' low
Lookin' for the woman I love, but she won't be back no more

Now I start walking; my feet got soaking wet
I ain't found my woman, ain't stopped walking yet

Now I start to write a letter, but I believe I'll go myself
Letter's so-so, but a telegram may get left

Now, Lord, Lord, Lordy Lordy Lord
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord

I start write a letter, and I lied that pencil down
Heart-struck sorrow and the tears come rolling down

But did you get that letter, that I dropped in your back yard?
I would'a come to see'd you, mama, but your other man had me barred
Mmm, mmm, mmmm, Lord, Lord, Lord
I'da come to see'd you, baby, but your other man had me barred

Yeah!

I know you're goin' miss me, rider, when I'm gone
I know you're goin' miss me from singin' my lonesome song

I'm goin' to the station, goin' 'a look up on the board
Train I ride is further on down the road

Just as sure, as the birds, fly in the sky above
Life ain't worth livin' if you ain't with the one you love

Mmmm, mmm-hmmm, said Lordy, Lordy Lord
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
