  12593>When I woke up this mornin'
  Had a smile run across my face.
  My baby from town just had to get down,
  Come and drag me all over the place.
 
 
  Gonta drive on a flatbed trailer truck
  Down on highway fifty-nine.
  I had the blues and my baby, she knew
  She's holdin' little piece of mind.
 
 
  Down brownie,
  My brownie downtown,
  Down brownie.
 
 
  Got my share and I'm a black hand cottonfield
  Just to try and keep myself alive.
  Eatin' red beans and rice with the right sauce, it's nice
  Or anything you wanna try.
 
 
  Now I'm hitchin' a ride back from brownie's,
  I'm kind of sad but I feel alright.
  The cold night it stings but I got me some wings,
  I'll be flyin' into houston tonight.
