I'm A Rollin' Stone
One, two, three, four
Well, I'm blue, baby, and lonely
Just as blue, baby, as I can be
Well, I ain't got me nobody
And this ain't worth a gaff for me
Well, I'm leaving early in the mornin'
Are they gonna catch me? That morning train
And I hope that you will pack your suitcase, little girl
And do the same old thing
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Somewhere swimmin' in the deep blue sea
Well, I would have all the good-lookin' pussy, don't you know?
Sure enough, just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Well, I went to see my baby
Yes, and I sat out on her step
And she said, "Wait a minute, Frankie
My husband just now left
Well, he just now left
Well, he just now left"
Well, my mama run to my daddy
Just about three months before I was born
She said, "I got a boy child comin' now
And he's goin' to be a rollin' stone"
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Somewhere swimmin' in the deep blue sea
I would have all the good-lookin' pussy, don't ya know?
Sure enough, just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Well, I went to see my babe
Yes, and I sat down on her stair
And she said, "Wait a minute, Frankie
My husband just now left
Well, he just now left
You should come in and make yourself comfortable
Over here by the radiator
And those curtains with the big roses on 'em
Right over here by the Silvertone 45rpm imitation stereo record player
Would you like a little nookie?
A little nookie?
Will have a little package of nookie?"
Well, I'm blue, baby, and lonely
Just as blue, baby, as I can be
Well, I ain't got me nobody
And this ain't worth a gaff for me
Well, I'm leaving early in the mornin'
Are they gonna catch me? That morning train
And I hope that you will pack your suitcase, little girl
And do the same old thing
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Somewhere swimmin' in the deep blue sea
Well, I would have all the good-lookin' pussy, don't you know?
Sure enough, just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Well, I went to see my baby
Yes, and I sat out on her step
And she said, "Wait a minute, Frankie
My husband just now left
Well, he just now left
Well, he just now left"
Well, my mama run to my daddy
Just about three months before I was born
She said, "I got a boy child comin' now
And he's goin' to be a rollin' stone"
Well, I wish I was a catfish
Somewhere swimmin' in the deep blue sea
I would have all the good-lookin' pussy, don't ya know?
Sure enough, just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Just a-fishin' after me
Well, I went to see my babe
Yes, and I sat down on her stair
And she said, "Wait a minute, Frankie
My husband just now left
Well, he just now left

And those curtains with the big roses on 'em
Right over here by the Silvertone 45rpm imitation stereo record player
Would you like a little nookie?
A little nookie?
