Lyrics:

Says I've been traveling mama all by myself
When I had you baby you thought I had somebody else
But that's all right mama I'll be up some day
And just like you did me baby I'm going to do you the same old way

Said now I ain't got no money and no place to go
I asked you for a little small favor and you drove me from your door
But that's all right mama I'll be up some day
And just like you did me baby I'm going to do you the same old way

Now I've got a little sweet woman that I can call my own
I want your turning‑gate women to please leave me alone
But that's all right mama I'll be up some day
And just like you did me baby I'm going to do you the same old way

Ever since you been gone mama I've been about to lose my mind
But I got another little sweet woman and I don't want your three sixty‑nine
But that's all right mama I'll be up some day
And just like you did me baby I'm going to do you the same old way
