Have you woke up in the morning, full of worry an' moans?
Have you woke up in the morning, deep in worry 'n' moans?
Your best girl quit you, left you alone
Got a brownskin woman, just about as I need
Got a brownskin woman, just about as I need
Now, the reason I say it, Lord, she's just sweet to me
When she stroke my face, she make my fever rise
When she rub my head, she make my fever rise
When she stroke my stomach,she soothe my appetite
Now, I had me a woman, didn't mean me no good
I once had me a woman, didn't mean me no good
Now I got me another woman, best in the neighborhood
Have you woke up in the morning, full of worry an' moans?
Have you woke up in the morning, deep in worry 'n' moans?
Your best girl quit you, left you alone
Got a brownskin woman, just about as I need
Got a brownskin woman, just about as I need
Now, the reason I say it, Lord, she's just sweet to me
When she stroke my face, she make my fever rise
When she rub my head, she make my fever rise
When she stroke my stomach,she soothe my appetite
Now, I had me a woman, didn't mean me no good
I once had me a woman, didn't mean me no good
Now I got me another woman, best in the neighborhood
