Milk Cow Boogie

(album: Levon Helm & The RCO All-Stars - 1977)

Well I woke up this morning and I looked at my door
I can tell it was my milk cow by the way she lows
If you see my milk cow you better drive her on home
Ain't had no milk and butter since that good cow been gone

Well I tried everything you know to get along with you
Now let me tell you baby what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna quit my trying, gonna leave you alone
If you don't think I'm leaving you can count the days I'm gone

You're gonna need my love, need it someday
Then you're gonna be sorry you treated me this a way

I said good evening, don't the sun look good going down
I said good evening, don't the sun look good going down
Don't that ol' army cot look lonely when your baby ain't around

Well I feel like milking but my cow won't come
I feel like chewing it but my milk won't come
Please please, please don't do me wrong
If you see my good milk cow you better drive her on home
