Take these stripes, stripes from around my shoulder |
|
Take these chains, these chains from around my legs |

Lord, these stripes, it sure don't worry me |
|
But these chains, these chain's gonna kill me dead |

And i ain't gonna bring them yellow women no pail |

On friday, my baby went a-walking |

On a saturday, she locked me outa the door |

On a sunday, we were sitting down a-talking |
|
On a monday, she pawned all of my clothes |
