Done Wrong Song

I ate almonds

And drank post oak jack,

And still had a first-class

Heart attack,

When I heard the news,

That you had the blues,

Cuz, your baby done you wrong.

I hung my little head and cried,

And wondered how I’d hemmed the tide

And stayed with you so long.

Then with lavender, hemp, and hyssop washes,

I cleansed away my sackcloth and ashes.

I felt so free,

And wished it were me,

Who’d done you so dang wrong.
