Oooh I love you, baby

I love you night and day

When I leave you, baby, don't cry the night away

When I die, don't you write no words upon my tomb

I don't believe I want to leave

No epitaph of doom

Ooh ooh ooh - when I'm dead and gone

I wanna leave some happy woman living on

Ooh ooh ooh - when I'm dead and gone

Don't want nobody to mourn

Beside my grave, yeah

Old Mama Linda

She's out to get my hide

She's got a shotgun and her daughter by her side

Hey there, ladies

John son's free

Who's got the love, who's got enough

To keep a man like me

Ooh ooh ooh - when I'm dead and gone

I wanna leave some happy woman living on

Ooh ooh ooh - when I'm dead and gone

Don't want nobody to mourn

Beside my grave, yeah
