One Way Out - Original - Elmore James

Ain’t but one way out baby, lord I just can’t go out the door

Ain’t but one way out baby, and lord I just can’t go out the door

Cause there’s a man down there, might be your man I don’t know

Lord you got me trapped woman, up on the second floor;

If I get by this time I won’t be trapped no more

So raise our window baby, I can ease out soft and slow

And lord, your neighbors, no they won’t be

Talking that stuff that they don’t know

Lord, I’m foolish to be here in the first place

I know some man gonna walk in and take my place

Ain’t no way in the world, I’m going out that front door

Cause there’s a man down there, might be your man I don’t know

Cause there’s a man down there, might be your man I don’t know

Cause there’s a man down there

Freely

Lord, it just might happen to be your man…

Lord, it just a might be your man

Oh baby, I just don’t know…
