American Ballads and Folk Songs
I ain' no doctor, babe, ain' no doctor's son, I ain' no doctor, babe, ain' no doctor's son, But I kin cool yo' fever, babe, till de doctor come. |

Come on, babe, le's ease out on de edge o' town, Come on, babe, le's ease out on de edge o' town, Got a shack out dere, an' I know it won' break down. |
||
Don' min' marryin', babe, do, Lawd, settlin' down! Don' min' marryin', babe, do, Lawd, settlin' down! Gwine pack my suitcase, babe, an' ride f'um town to town. |
||
I's tired of livin', pretty mama, I don' know what to do, I's tired of livin', pretty mama, I don' know what to do, You is tired of me, babe, an' I is tired of you.
I was settin' down here wond'rin',—would a matchbox hoi' my clo'es, I was settin' down here wond'rin',—would a matchbox hoi' my clo'es, Don' want no suitcase, pretty mama, on my lonesome road.
Down de road somewhere, down de road somewhere, Down de road somewhere, down de road somewhere, I'll fin' me a woman, babe, an' roam no' mo'. |
