Your rating:

You get a line and I?ll get a pole, oh babe
  You get a line and I?ll get a pole
  An? I?ll met you down by the crawdad hole
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  A well you don?t miss water? til the well runs dry
  You don?t miss the water ?til the well runs dry
  Don?t miss the water ?til the well runs dry
  An? you don?t miss your man ?til he says good bye
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  So when you see me coming hoist your windows high
  When you see me coming hoist your windows high
  When you see me coming hoist your windows high
  When you see me leavin? hang your head and cry
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  Watcha gonna do when your chair gives out, my sweet thing
  Watcha gonna do when your chair gives out, my babe
  When you got no liquor, no chair, no shoes
  Well you lay ?cross the bed with your head in the blues
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  Oh well I dance all night with a bottle in my hand, oh baby
  Dance all night with a bottle in my hand, oh babe
  Dance all night with a bottle in my hand
  I?m looking for a woman ain?t got no man
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  Wonder what Satan?s grumbling ?bout, oh baby
  Wonder whet Satan?s grumbling ?bout, oh babe
  Wonder what Satan?s grumbling ?bout
  Oh well he?s chained down in hell and can?t get out
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  Wake up old man, you slept too late this mornin?
  Wake up old man, you slept too late this evenin?
  Wake up old man, you slept too late
  The crawdad wagon done passed your gate
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine

  You get a line and I?ll get a pole, oh baby
  You get a line and I?ll get a pole, oh babe
  You get a line and I?ll get a pole
  An? I?ll meet you down by the crawdad hole
  Oh well a yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby mine
