Baby I'm writing
you this letter now,
everything I said is true
Baby, I'm writing you this letter
And it's leaving me sad and blue
Now believe me now baby
Everything I said is true
Baby you's in the north
and for me I'm in the south
Yes, mama,
you know I use in the north, baby,
and poor Bill is down here in the south.
Baby, I ain't got nothing to eat, baby,
and it's raining down
in my house.
Baby, all I ask, all I ask of you
No, baby, it's all I ask, baby,
it's all I ask of you
Just be nice to me, baby,
an d give me some lovin', too
Baby, all I want is a big black Cadillac car
Yes, ma 'am, declare,
you know it's all I want, baby
Is a big black Cadillac car
I'd be a right mother for you, baby
But I won't go far
Baby, I'm bringing my clothes,
and I'm bringing my guitar, too.
Yes, I'm bringing my clothes, baby,
and I'm bringing my guitar, too.
Now you know, baby,
everything I've got belongs to you.
