When I woke up this mornin
had a smile run across my face.
My baby from town just had to get down
come and drag me all over the place.

Gonta drive on a flatbed trailer truck
down on highway fifty-nine.
I had the blues and my babyshe knew
she s holdin little piece of mind.

Down brownie
my brownie downtown
down brownie.

Got my share and I m a black hand cottonfield
just to try and keep myself alive.
Eatin red beans and rice with the right sauceit s nice
or anything you wanna try.

Now I m hitchin a ride back from Brownie s
I m kind of sad but I feel alright.
The cold night it stings but I got me some wings
I ll be flyin into Houston tonight.
