Willow tree gal - John Lee "Sonny Boy" Williamson

Lord, I believe she been lookin' for me in

Mama late hour at midnight

Lord, I believe she been lookin' for me, yeah

Mama, late hours at midnight, now

Now but I never come home

Until the sun was shinin' bright, now

Lord, yo' raggin' and yo' twistin', yeah

A-baby, naturally don’t take no 'ffect on me, no

Lord, yo' raggin' an yo' twistin'

A-naturally don’t take no 'ffect on me, now

Now because I used to have a woman

An this woman could do just shake just like a willow tree

'Well, alright Lillian, alright Lillian

Now when I get a call from way across the country, yeah

Baby, when ain’t nobody else around, now

I get a call from way across country, yeah

A-baby, when ain’t nobody else around, now

Now Jeremy, don’t you feel bad, hm!

A-when your real woman have throwed you down, now?

If I could just receive a letter, oh

A-people from Des Moines, Iowa-ay, now

Lord, if I could just receive a letter

People from Des Moines, Iowa-ay, now

Now that would kind-a help me with my trouble, yeah

Oh Lord, an that would drive my blues away, now
