My Lady and me fought our way free from a shanty town, parades of the blues were in every night, we slipped out of town with the morning's light. My Lady and me wanted to see if we'd settle down, we're still on the make with a one man show, gets harder to take everyday we go, and when will it end, oh we just don't know. A half dozen ladies tried to change my life-style, promises and maybe, lead me astray, almost took me away. And we're ready, and were waiting patiently, for the time to come and be for my Lady and me. Last night I had a thought of a house in the country, but this day is just another with everything in front of me, and my Lady doesn't like it, but she won't say nothin' to me, we've been out here learnin' to love for a long time, and we're ready, yes we're waiting patiently, for the time to come and be for my Lady and me. Oh, my Lady, Oh, my Lady, Oh, my Lady, Oh, my Lady, Oh, my Lady, Oh, my Lady and me fought our way free from a shanty town, parades of the blues were in every night, we slipped out of town with the morning's light. My Lady and me wanted to see if we'd settle down, we're still on the make with a one man show, gets harder to take everyday we go. and when it will end, oh we just don't know. and when it will end, oh we just don't know and when it will end, oh my Lady.
