I wonder has anybody here
Seen my lovin' Lorenzo, today? I wonder has anybody here Seen my lovin' Lorenzo, today? You know, we had a nice time Christmas But she left me on New Year's Day Oh, you got to know her When you see her 'Cause she's so different From any other girl Oh, you've got to know her When you see her From any other girl Because she's made up Like a Coke-Cola bottle An she got a likeness It's outta this world, alright You know, she's stutters in her speech An she wiggle and she wobble When she walk She's stuttered in her speech An she wiggle an a-wobble When she walk Yes, an she got three gold teeth An she got deep dimples in her jaw, yeah I say, 'Hello, Lorenzo, Lorenzo How in the world come you treat me this-a-way?' I say, 'Lorenzo, Lorenzo How in the world come you treat me this-a-way?' Darling, you know that you was gonna leave me But you didn't tell me you was goin' to stay Now, if I can make a half a million I declare, I'm 'on give it all, to the hoodoo man I declare, if I can make a half a million I'm 'on give it all, to the hoodoo man Just after he promise me that he will Bring my lovin' Lorenzo, back home to me, again An I want her back ho-oh-ome, to me again. ~ |

The devil was stronger than I was, an' he did have, and is got now, a certain amount of power... And he lives in hell, and that's where he haves his part. And God give him a certain amount of time to be on the earth, in the bowels, persuadin' people... He still have agencies out. Everywhere you've been. And then he's a man don't never sleep. he never get offa his job or duty, That is, you can lay down happy at night, you and your companion... and in harmony. Everything goin' well. Satan'll creep in the house overnight... next mornin' you cannot get a good word out of her. Why?. Because satan has got the bill of sale over her. He done crept in overnight |
