Found my baby cryin'

I come home this mornin', yes, I found my baby cryin'
I come home this mornin', yes, I found my baby cryin'
I said, "Lord, have mercy, what is wrong with that little baby of mine?"

Don't, don't cry, babe, you know things is bound to change
Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, baby you know things is bound to change
Whoa, don't bring you bacon in the winter, bread, for sure, poor Lightnin' bring it in the spring
One more time

You know, it hurt me so bad, to see them tears roll down my baby's cheek
Yeah, you know it hurt me so bad, to see them tears rollin' down my baby's cheek
Whoa, you know I didn't have no money, poor Lightnin' didn't have a bite to eat
