Keep your back door locked
baby, keep your windows pinned
Keep your back door locked
and keep your windows pinned
If your husband should knock
tell him you're cooking and he can't come in

You oughta buy you a bulldog
to watch us whilst we sleep
You oughta buy you a bulldog
to watch us whilst we sleep
So he can see your husband
if he makes a 'fore day creep

Wake up, baby
please don't be so still
Wake up, baby
please don't be so still
'Less you fixing a good way
to get your daddy killed

What's that, baby
pecking on your window pane
What's that, baby
pecking on your window pane
Say the stars is shining
I know it can't be rain

The big star's falling
I know it can't be long 'fore day
The big star's falling
I know it can't be long 'fore day
And I think it's time for me
to make my get a way
