The woman I loved walked out on me,
 What am I going to do.
 Hound dog, bull frog, she just up and gone,
 The woman I love has done me wrong,
 What am I going to do.
 Green beans, blackeyed peas,
 What am I going to do,
 The woman I love has let me down,
 What am I going to do.

 She's a delta queen know what I mean,
 As mean as wildfire lightnin',
 She can win and break the heart of any man,
 She's the delta queen of New Orleans ,
 And she loved me somethin' frightnin',
 But she left me for a dollar wavin' man
