Well, I woke up this morning
Looked outdoors
I can tell my milk cow
I can tell by the way she lows
If you see my milk cow
Please drive her on home
Cause I ain't had no milk and butter
Since that cow been gone
Well, you gotta treat me right, honey
Day by day
Get out your little prayer book
Get down upon your knees and pray
Cause you're gonna need me
You're gonna need my help someday
Lord, you're going to be sorry
Ooh, you treated me this way
Aw, now take it away, boys
Sail on, sail on
Sail on, little gal, sail on
Sail on, sail on
Sail on, little gal, sail on
You're gonna keep right on to sailing
Till you lose your happy home
Gene Elders on the fiddle
Aw, here come those guitars
That's Benny and Rick
Well, good evening
Don't that sun look good going down?
I said, well, good evening
Don't that sun look good going down?
And don't that old army cot look lonely
When your lover ain't no place around?
Well, I tried everything, baby
To get along with you
And now I'm gonna tell you
What I'm gonna do
I'm gonna stop my crying
Gonna leave you alone
And if you don't think I'm leaving, big mama
Just count them days I'm gone
No, you ain't gonna see me
You ain't gonna see my sweet face no more
Lord, you gonna be wondering, honey
Where in this world I've gone
