Mother-In-Law Blues - Junior Parker

It was early in the mo’nin, I heard the rooster crow

For days

It was early in the mo’nin, I heard the rooster crow

For days

I looked out my window and saw my baby walk away

I thought Lord, please stop her, ain’t gonna get drunk

No mo'

I thought Lord, please stop her, ain’t gonna get drunk

No mo'

I hollered out my window, «Come back baby please don’t

Go»

I know she heard me callin', she looked back and waved

Her hand

I know she heard me callin', she looked back and waved

Her hand

I could hear her tell her mother, «That's one no good

Man!»

Well, I watched my baby leave, her mother had her by

The hand

Well, I watched my baby leave, her mother had her by

The hand

I’d give anything I have, just to see my little girl

Again
