My little girl is a country girl

My little girl is a country girl

Means more to me than anything in the world



She fixe my breakfast, lunch an' dinner

Fix 'em ri-ight on time

She fix my breakfast, lunch an' dinner

Fix 'em right on time

Glad to be back-a home

With that little girl of mine



That's why I'm glad, glad

Glad to be back home at last

Ooh-ooh, I'm glad, glad, glad

To be back home at last 

Well, since I saw my baby

Yeah, many a day have past



Well, I roll in the station

Around 6:45

Yes, I roll in the station

Around 6:45

Should of seen my baby's face

To see my train arrive



It made me feel so good

To walk in the door

Yes, it made me feel so good

To walk in the door

Find ev'rything the same

Even my pallet on the floor



I said 'A-hi-i-i-i, baby

I won't worry you no more'

Yes, I said, 'Hi-i-i-i, baby

I won't worry you no more'

Well, I'm right where I belong

I ain't gon' run out that door.
