Quarter Past Nine - Elmore James, The Broom Dusters

I’ve got a baby, I don’t know where she is

Yes, I’ve got a baby, but I don’t know where she is

I’ll get in my bed and sleep better

Can’t keep my poor self still

Oh, tell me baby, what you got on your mind

Ah, please tell me baby, what you got on your mind

Oh, I got to see you baby, you know I can’t lose my time

The clock here this morning say a quarter past nine

I was sitting and rocking in the morning baby

Until a quarter past nine

Well, when I find my other baby

You know you done lost your time
