Believe My Time Ain't Long

I'm gettin' up soon in the morning

I believe I'll dust my broom

I'm gettin' up soon in the morning

I believe I'll dust my broom

I quit the best gal I'm loving, ah

Now my friends can get in my room



I'm gonna write a letter

Telephone every town I know

I'm gonna write a letter

Telephone every town I know

If I don't find her in Mississippi

She'll be in East Monroe I know



I don't want no woman

Want every downtown man she meet

No I don't want no woman

Want every downtown man she meet

Man she a no-good darling

They shouldn't allow her

On the street, yeah



~ Break ~



I believe

I believe my time ain't long

I believe

I believe my time ain't long

I ain't gonna leave my baby

And break up my happy home
