Tell ol bill when he comes home this mornin?
Tell ol bill when he comes home this evenin?
Tell ol bill when he comes home to leave them downtown girls alone
This morning this evenin? so soon

Old sal was baking bread this morning
Old sal was baking bread this evenin?
Old sal was baking bread when she found out her bill was dead
This morning this evenin? so soon

She said oh no it cant be so this mornin?
Oh no it cant be so this evenin?
She said oh n, it can? t be so My bill left home bout an hour ago
This morning this evenin? so soon

Well they brought bill home in a hurry up wagon this morning
They brought bill home in a hurry up wagon this evenin
Well they brought bill home in a hurry up wagon his arms, his legs, his feet were draggin
This morning this evenin so soon
So soon
So soon
So soon

Tell ol bill when he gets home this morning
Tell oil bill when he comes home this evenin
Yes tell ol bill when he comes home to leave them downtown girls alone
This morning this evenin so soon
So soon
So soon
