Came home this morning
Feeling down and out
Whoa I came home this morning
Feeling down and out
I was so lonely when I got home
Called my woman done without
I said babe why you wanna leave me
Why you wanna treat me this way
Why you wanna leave me
Why you wanna treat me this way
You gonna wake up one morning
You gonna need my love someday
I'm gonna take you back down south babe
Put you back out there in the field
Make you pick me 200 pounds a day
Get you use to that old cotton field
I told my baby
You never underestimate my worth no more
Came home this morning
Feeling down and out
Came home this morning
Feeling down and out
I was so lonely when I got home
Called my woman done without
