[Verse 1]
Funny how she calls tonight
I need her more than ever
I've been down in low cotton
As lonesome as can be
And I think about her often, boys
And even when I'm sober
I read over the love notes
The ones she wrote for me
[Pre-Chorus]
And if she want one night
Well that'd be just fine, well
[Chorus]
Somebody fetch my walkin' cane
I'm gonna get my baby
I'm gonna run to meet her
'Neath the shadow of the pines
She's gonna hop that coal train
She'll get off on Harlan Road
Love me 'til the morning comes
And leave me like a dream
[Verse 2]
And I'd run to her through tobacco fields
And over 'cross the clover
I'd wade a mile of briar patch, boys
Just to touch her skin
And I reckon I'm the foolish kind
To beckon to her callin'
But I can't seem to help myself
Let that woman win
Funny how she calls tonight
I need her more than ever
I've been down in low cotton
As lonesome as can be
And I think about her often, boys
And even when I'm sober
I read over the love notes
The ones she wrote for me
[Pre-Chorus]
And if she want one night
Well that'd be just fine, well
[Chorus]
Somebody fetch my walkin' cane
I'm gonna get my baby
I'm gonna run to meet her
'Neath the shadow of the pines
She's gonna hop that coal train
She'll get off on Harlan Road
Love me 'til the morning comes
And leave me like a dream
[Verse 2]
And I'd run to her through tobacco fields
And over 'cross the clover
I'd wade a mile of briar patch, boys
Just to touch her skin
And I reckon I'm the foolish kind
To beckon to her callin'
But I can't seem to help myself
Let that woman win
