Give me - I'm gonna take it - back that wig I bought you woman,

oh Lord let your doggone head go bald

Give me back that wig I bought you woman

- I'm mad at you as I can be -

let your doggone head go bald

You know the special del'vry brought me a letter this mornin',

cryin', woman you don't need no hair at all



Special delivery man said he seed you on the corner last night -

You was talking with another man -

He said you was tagging all around with a -

Whiskey bottle in your hand -

I say give me back that wig I bought you, oh Lord let your doggone head go bald

Yes you know the news I got from downtown,

woman you don't need no hair at all



(what you want with a woman who ain't got no hair?

What's the matter with you girl?)



I'm just gonna tell you -

Po' Lightnin' is fair -

I'm just gonna cut out one of these -

Little locks of my hair

Cause don't be bothered with you no more

Yes I want you to have pretty hair here, hair every place we go.
