How many mo' yearsBaby, now will I be your slave?I say, how many mo' yearsMama, now will I be your slave?Well, now something I'm tellin' youWoo-well, now I'm tired of you low down dirty waysWhen I come home at nightBaby, ev'rything is wrongWhen I come home at nightMama, ev'rything is wrongNow you sit keep company all dayWoo-well-well, your man he will be goneI often tell youTo be careful what you doWoo-hoo-well-brownTo be careful what you doWell now, if it is right or wrongWoo-well, somebody may tell on you(piano - Peetie)I tried to be a real manBut now it seems to be all in vainWoo-hoo-ooo, girlSeems to be all in vainBut now you know if tell on you, babyWoo-well, now you goin' just the sameCan you tell me pleaseIf you know just what right means?Woo-well brownIf you know just what right means?Well you about to go out here, grumpiestWoo-well, then any woman I ever seen.~
