Broke and hungry

I am broke and hungry : ragged and dirty too
Mama if I clean up : can I go home with you

I am motherless fatherless : sister and brotherless too
Reason I'm trying so hard : to make the trip with you

You miss me woman : count the days I'm gone
I'm going away : to build me a railroad of my own

I feel like jumping : through the keyhole in your door
If you jump this time baby : you won't jump no more

I believe : my good gal have found my black cat bone
I can leave here Sunday morning : Monday morning I'm sitting around home

I want to show you women : what careless love have done
Caused a man like me : steal way away from home

Girl if you don't want me : why don't you let me know
So I can leave at once : and hunt me somewhere else to go
