Poor Black Mattie

(album: Belle Of The West - 2017)

Poor Black Mattie, yeah (poor black Mattie)
Ain't got a change in clothes (change in clothes)
Girl got drunk, oh (girl got drunk)
Close that door (close that door)
Poor Black Mattie (poor black Mattie)
Ain't got change o' clothes
Girl got drunk, throwed her trunk outdoor

Going to Memphis to see that (going to Memphis)
Worldly fair (the worldly fair)
Reason I'm going (the reason I'm goin')
Baby, there (is my baby's there)
Going to Memphis (going to Memphis)
See that worldly fair
Reason I'm going, 'cause my baby there

Need no heater fireplace (need no heater)
By my bed (said, by my bed)
Woman I got (that woman I got)
Cherry red (cherry red)
Need no heater (need no heater)
Fireplace by my bed
Woman I got, keep me cherry red

Woman I got (woman I got)
Keep me cherry red (keep me cherry red)
Woman I got (woman I got)
Keep me cherry red (keep me cherry red)
