16 days - the 40 acre mule lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
they gave me 16 days in the county jail
’cause i was up to no good and raisin’ h-ll
jailer, jailer, don’t you understand?!
my woman done left me, i’m a broken man

[chorus]
my baby’s long gone
i just can’t do right since my baby done me wrong

[verse 2]
rode a greyhound bus for 600 miles
back to dallas, texas just to see her smile
opened the door and when i walked in
i found a note that said she’d left me for my good-timin’ friend

[chorus]
my baby’s long gone
i just can’t do right since my baby done me wrong

[verse 3]
jailer said, “son, won’t you listen to me
i’m about as sorry as i can be
but ’cause your woman done gone, that don’t make it alright
to go raisin’ h-ll in the middle of the night

[chorus]
my baby’s long gone
i just can’t do right since my baby done me wrong

[outro]
my baby’s long gone
my baby’s long gone
my baby’s long gone
my baby’s long gone
my baby’s long gone
my baby’s long gone
