[Verse 1]
I was born on a levee
A little bit south of Montgom'ry
Mama worked in the big house
And Daddy he worked for the county
I never had no learnin'
Until I turned 16
When Joe Henry come up the river, y'all
Lord, made a woman outta me (Yes, he did)
Lord, he made a woman outta me (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
I used to tease Joe Henry
I guess it served me right
Wasn't long 'til he left me
Cryin' out in the night
Joe Henry had his way
He wеnt and set me free
Well, I need tеll everybody
That the man made a woman outta me (She was)
Lord, he made a woman outta me (Yeah)
[Bridge]
When I think back to that day so long ago
I-I-I get a little feelin' on my mind
Although it hurt me there's one thing I know
When he left, he left him a woman behind (Behind)
