Classic Poem

Got three womens:
yellow, brown, and black
I got three womens:
yellow, brown, and black
It'll take the Governor of Georgia
to judge one of these women I like

One for in the morning
and one for late at night
One for in the morning
and one for late at night
I got one for the noon time
to treat your daddy right

These blues at midnight
they don't leave me till day
These blues at midnight
they don't leave me till day
I didn't have none of my three women
to drive these blues away

One is a Memphis yellow
the other 's a Savannah brown
One is a Memphis yellow
the other 's a Savannah brown
One is a Statesboro dark-skin
she'll really turn your damper down

Now, if I had a-listened
to what my three women said
Now, if I had a-listened to
what my three women said
I'd-a been at home sleeping
in a doggone feather bed
