I woke up this morning in a terrible mood
Now you talk about a woman treatin´ a good man rude
She had me talkin´ to myself, gazin´ at that mean ol´ wall

She had another daddy waitin´ down at the end of the hall

She changes with the weather like the leaves I recall
She blossoms in the spring but then she´s gone in the fall
A two timin´ woman with a heart of solid stone
She tells me that she loves me but her heart´s a little undergrown

Well, she said she´d never leave me but she´d got the urge to roam
She drifts around the country like a steamboat on a foam
She never changes course, she just goes along that same ol´ way
And I hope she keeps a driftin´ rolls along back home someday

´Cause if I ever find her gonna chain her to the floor
And tell her "Now sit there woman you ain´t leavin´ no more"
I´m gonna tame you mama till you´re eatin´ from my hand
It´s not that I don´t love you honey it´s just to make you understand

I woke up this morning in a terrible mood
Now you talk about a woman treatin´ a good man rude
She had me talkin´ to myself, gazin´ at that mean ol´ wall
She had another daddy waitin´ down at the end of the hall
