Milk Cow Blues

(album: Then And Now - 1973)

Well, I woke up this morning looked out my door
I thought I'd hear that milk cow, I can tell the way she lore
If you see my milk cow, please drive her on home
Ain't had no milk and butter, woo, since that cow got gone

Now you've gotta treat me right, day by day
Get out that little prayer book, get on your knees and pray
'Cause you're gonna need, yes, you're gonna need my help someday
Yeah, you're gonna be sorry you went and treated me this way

Well, good evening, don't that sun look good going down?
Yeah, good evening, don't that sun look good going down?
And don't your bed look lonesome
When your sweet women, she hang around?

Now I've tried everything baby, to get along with you
Now I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna stop crying, gonna leave you alone
If you don't believe I'm leaving, you can count the days I'm gone
You won't see, oh, you ain't gon' see my face no more

You just gonna be wondering
Oh, where in this world that I'm gone
