Gate’s Salty Blues - Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown

Well, my baby left me this morning

'Cause she found herself another man

Yes, I said my baby left me

'Cause she found herself another man

Just why she did that to me

Is something I can’t understand

I’ve been good to my baby

Better than a new man could be

Yes, I’ve been good to my baby

Better than a new man could be

But she left me cold this mornin'

How could she do this to me?

I’m gonna get me another woman

Gonna keep her under my thumb

Yes, I’m gonna get me another woman

Keep her under my thumb

I’m gonna treat her like a dirty dog

Till she tells me I’m the only one
