She said that she would never leave me Now she's gone away and it grieves me I was fast a-sleepin' when she come a-midnight creepin' Gonna find her Gonna find my baby gonna bring her home with me
My bags are packed for to travel Gonna cover many miles of gravel Gonna find my baby 'cause she's the finest lady Gonna find her Gonna find my baby gonna bring her home with me
Going down Texas going to Georgia Oklahoma, Mississippi border Going to Alabammy going to Louisiana, Tennessee I'm a-gonna find my baby gonna bring her home with me Gonna find my baby gonna bring home with me (she heard the sky was fallin') I'm a-gonna find my baby gonna bring her with me
