Lonesome Home

Ain't it lonesome, ain't it lonesome, sitting in your

home alone

Ain't it lonesome, ain't it lonesome, sitting in your

home alone

Yes, you know, when your wife done quit your black self

and the girl you love is gone

Yeah, you know she kind of like Katie Mae

I give her everything in the world she needs

That's why she don't do nothing, man, but lay up in the

bed and read

And you know, she's kind of like Katie Mae

Boy, I give that woman everything in the world she

needs

Yes, that's why, you know, she don't do nothing, man,

lay up in the bed and read

Yes, you know I bought her a radio, I even bought her

a'electric fan

She said, "Sam. I'm gon' lay here and read and God

knows I won't have no other man"

That made me feel so good till I don't know what to do

Yes, darling, every dollar poor Sam makes, you know, he

got to bring it back home to you

(Got to play it out right here)

Still, I say, can't a woman act funny, I'm talking

about when she got another man?

You know she won't look straight at you, boy, she

always raising sand

Can't a woman act funny, boy, when she got another man

Yes, you know she won't look straight at you, then

she's always raising sand
