| You know I went home last night
|
| Sat down on my bed and cried
|
| I went home, I went home last night, Sonny
|
| Sat down on my bed and cried
|
| Yeah, you know I was thinkin' about my little woman
|
| And at the time poor lightnin' couldn’t be satisfied
|
| Lord, have mercy
|
| You know the nightmares got on me
|
| Whoa, they rode me all night long
|
| You know the nightmares jumped on poor lightnin'
|
| Ooh Lord, it rode me all night long
|
| And I woke up not findin' nothin' but a dream
|
| That’s why I’m singin' this lonesome song
|
| I don’t care when you go little woman
|
| I don’t care how long you stay
|
| I don’t care when you go little woman
|
| I don’t care how long you stay
|
| Yeah, you know them old good kind treatments
|
| They bring a woman back home one day
|
| Don’t worry about it, just call her one time
|
| Katie Mae, whoa, Katie Mae
|
| Katie Mae, whoa, Katie Mae
|
| Katie Mae, whoa, Katie Mae, now, don’t you
|
| I know you hear me even if you don’t answer
|
| I’m just prayin' to me good Lord up in Heaven
|
| Katie Mae will come back home to me someday
|
| Play it a while, ooh Lord |
