My baby's gone and she won't be back no more
My baby's gone and she won't be back no more
Left me soon this mornin', like she did the night before

I don't want no woman that stays drunk all the time
I don't want no woman that stays drunk all the time
She has a daddy mistreat her, and she don't pay me no mind

I'm gonna call up Cherney, she's my good gal overthere
I'm gonna call up Cherney, she's my good gal overthere
Don't fill 'em full of pity, she didn't leave me for some other guy

I believe, I believe my baby's gone
I believe, I believe my baby's gone
Left me early one morning, and didn't come home
