Good  Lord, good  Lord, send  me an angel  down
   (Fill 1)  (Fill 2)
 Can't spare no angel, we'll send you teasin' brown
 Well that new way of loving, swear to god it must be best
 For these Detroit women won't let Mr. Jack White rest
 There was a cry on the corner, wonder what could it be
 Must be some women, tryin' to get to me
 I Went down to the station, suitcase in my hand
 All the women run cryin', "Mr. Jack, won't you be my man?"
 Well there was three women, yellow, brown and black
 Take a man from Detroit to pick which one I like
 One of 'em Hampshire yellow, one of 'em Detroit brown
 But the southwest darkskin sure to turn my damper down
 Well ticket agent, ticket agent where did my baby go?
 Tell me what she looked like I'll tell you what road she's on
 Well she's a long tall Mama, mounahair(?) from the ground
 She's a tailor made Mama she ain't no hand me down
 Well I used to say married women, sweetest women ever born
 You better change that thing you better leave married women alone
 Take my advice let married women, boy let 'em be
 Cos their husband'll grab ya, beat your ragged ass with a cedar tree
 I got two women, you can't tell 'em apart
 I got one in my bosom and the other one is in my heart
 Well that woman in my bosom, she live in Tennesee
 But that one in my heart well she don't give a darn for me
 I'm gonna tell you pretty Mama, exactly who I am
 When I walk in that front door and hear that back door slam
