I'm goin' to the river folks and take a great big jump (2X) I used to be a wise man, but a woman made me a chump It sure is funny how hard a man can fall (2x) When he gets to thinkin' one woman has got it all My baby throwed me out and I started walkin' down the Tracks, (2x) Then I went home and begged her to take me back. She ain't no good, but I can't quit her somehow (2x) I used to be a wise cat but this woman has turned me Down. She don't act sweet. She's the mean and naggin' kind (2x) She's got a quiver, make a drunk man lose his mind
