I have a man I can't control : I don't know what to do
My man left me two this morning : now he's trying to come 
back at noon
He got up and *packed his suit* : *said he was going 
along about nine*
I went to the fortuneteller to find my man : because he 
lays heavy on my mind
She said your man was on : that 'fore?day scat
And that's a different kind : of Maltese cat
Poor girl I know : your man has done you wrong
It's hard to tell : a man is long long gone
He left here riding : left on the Cannonball
He wasn't so handsome : and so long and tall
I want all you women : to spread the news
Want you to tell it : to who you choose
