My Woman's Gone Wrong - Leroy Carr, Scrapper Blackwell

Now I woke up this morning: my woman was standing over me

She had a big forty‑five: and she was mad as she could be

Now I prayed to my baby: and to the Lord above

Now I said honey please don’t shoot me: baby you the only woman I love

She seen me with a woman: standing at her front gate

Now I tried my best to dodge her: but I was just a little too late

Now and it’s please please please darling: honey please don’t take my life

Because you got me all wrong baby: honey that was another man’s wife
