Young Woman Blues - Lavern Baker

Woke up this mornin, when chickens was crowin' for day

And on the right side of my pillow, my man had gone away

By his pillow he left a note

Readin' «I m sorry, Jane, you got my goat.»

No time to marry, no time to settle down

I’m a young woman and I ain’t done runnin' round

I’m a young woman and I ain’t done runnin' round

Some people call me a hobo, Some call me a bum

Nobody knows my name, nobody knows what I’ve done

I’m as good as any woman in your town

I ain’t gonna marry, ain’t gonna settle down

I’m gonna drink good moonshine and run these old gals down

See that long lonesome road, lord, you know it’s gotta end

And i’m a good, good woman and I can get plenty men
