I was over in Aberdeen

On my way to New Orleans

Well the Aberdeen women told me

They would give me my gasoline

Aberdeen is my home

But they just don't want me around

Aberdeen is my home

But they just don't want me around

I'm gonna take these women

Take them out this town

Well just look over yonder

Coming down the road

That must be my baby coming

Tell me she don't want me know more

Well there's too many women

I bring too many women

Back from New Orleans

I was standin' 'roun cryin'

With my heart right in my hand

I was standin' 'round cryin'

With my heart right in my hand

I was lookin' for that woman

One ain't got no man

Well just look over yonder

Where we used to live

Don't you know it's killing me, baby

How we can't live here no more

Well it's goodbye, baby

If I'm never gonna see you no more

Well it's goodbye, baby

If I'm never gonna see you no more

I'm gonna tell everybody you've been

Still knockin at my door
