  • Woah, Lord I wish, Lord I wonder what happens
    Answer's the nickel, a deep blues sea
    I tore all the good looking women somewhere
    Sure enough baby that's me, 'cause it's gonna happen

    Lord my mother, well so as my father
    About three months long before I was born
    Said I got a boy child coming
    Sure enough it gonna be a rolling stone
    Lord I'm gonna get a rolling stone man

    Lord I'm broke
    Lord I'm broke

    Now I reckon I better do
    Lord if I clean up little girls
    Then I go home with you
    Yeah man I'm gonna walk

    Woah, Lord it's true, two things running
    Lord I believe you're the worst child in my way
    We're gonna watch them run at midnight
    But the one that's running just gonna lie dead

    Lord she's lone yeah and she's tall
    Lord she weeps like a banshee
    Lord the folks they say she's no good
    But she's all right with me, 'cause I'll be right there

    Woah, ho, ho
    Somebody help me, help me, I always lose
    Lord see if the girl don't love the man you know
    That's when I do the voodoos
    Ah, don't make you hurt honey Writer/s: JOHNNY WINTER
