Lawdy Miss Clawdy

Sam Cooke · Specialty Profiles [2006]

Oh now Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy, miss Clawdy

Girl, you sure look good to me

Well, please don't excite me, baby

No, it can't be me



Because I give you all of my money

Duh, but you just won't treat me right

You like to ball in the morning

Don't come back till late at night



I'm gonna tell, tell my mama

Lawd, I swear to God what you're doing to me

I'm gonna tell everybody

That I'm down in misery



Well, now Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy, miss Clawdy

Lawd, I swear to God you sure look good to me

You just wheeling and rocking, baby

You're just as fine as you can be



Well, so bye, bye, bye, baby

Girl, I won't be trouble no more

Goodbye, Clawdy, oh darling

Down the road I'll go
