—Kokomo Arnold, 1934
Well, I woke up this mornin' stuck my head out the door
I can tell it was my milk cow
I can tell the way she moans
If you see my milk cow, please, drive her on home
'Cause I ain't had no milk and butter
Since my cow's been gone
Well, you gotta treat me right day by day
Get out your little prayer book
Get down upon your knees and pray
'Cause you're gonna to need my help
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, you're gonna be sorry you treated me this way
I know baby gone, she's left me to stay
I'm gonna leave you honey,
I'm gonna go far away
If you need me baby, please call me at home.
'Cause I ain't had no milk and butter
Since my baby's been been gone
