Lorenzo Blues

I wonder has anybody here

Seen my lovin' Lorenzo, today?

I wonder has anybody here

Seen my lovin' Lorenzo, today?

You know, we had a nice time Christmas

But she left me on New Year's Day

Oh, you got to know her

When you see her

'Cause she's so different

From any other girl

Oh, you've got to know her

When you see her

From any other girl

Because she's made up

Like a Coke-Cola bottle

An she got a likeness

It's outta this world, alright

You know, she's stutters in her speech

An she wiggle and she wobble

When she walk

She's stuttered in her speech

An she wiggle an a-wobble

When she walk

Yes, an she got three gold teeth

An she got deep dimples in her jaw, yeah

I say, 'Hello, Lorenzo, Lorenzo

How in the world come you treat me this-a-way?'

I say, 'Lorenzo, Lorenzo

How in the world come you treat me this-a-way?'

Darling, you know that you was gonna leave me

But you didn't tell me you was goin' to stay

Now, if I can make a half a million

I declare, I'm 'on give it all, to the hoodoo man

I declare, if I can make a half a million

I'm 'on give it all, to the hoodoo man

Just after he promise me that he will

Bring my lovin' Lorenzo, back home to me, again

An I want her back ho-oh-ome, to me again.
