I woke up that morning
Whah whaow whah whuh
To see my man
Whah whaow whah whuh
But he said I wronged him
Whah whaow whah whuh
Seen with another man.
Whah whaow whah whuh
But then, there I told him that he was was wrongin’ me.
Whah whaow whah whuh

He said I was lyin’
Whah whaow whah whuh
But I hollered “no!”
Whah whaow whah whuh
I went up and shot him!
Whah whaow whah whuh
But that there was twenty long years ago
Whah whaow whah whuh

And with my ‘monica
Whah whaow whah whuh
Been here ever since
Whah whaow whah whuh
For shootin’ my lover
Whah whaow whah whuh
But I don’t regret
Whah whaow whah whuh
I’ve met other chicks
Whah whaow whah whuh
I met other men
Whah whaow whah whuh
And all are a lot better than him.
Whah whaow whah whuh

And that’s all my story
Whah whaow whah whuh
That landed me here
Whah whaow whah whuh
In this Stony Lonesome
Whah whaow whah whuh
And I got the jailbird blues!
Wahoo, wahoo, wahhh…
