Now, here`s my hand, baby

Now, here`s my hand, baby

You can lead me where you wan-nu

You can lead me where you wan` me to go

Now, an if I don`t make you happy

You won`t have to fool wit` me no mo`



Now tell me, baby, mm

Now tell me, baby, mm

Baby, just what you want me to do

Baby, what you want me to do?

Now, do I have to be your little dog

Just to try to get along with you?



I wanna talk to my brother, T.W.

I won`t have no trouble

I want him to take me to schoolroom

I wanna see some a-them little school girls

Now, an when I get-in back to Jackson

I tell my mother, Nancy

`I been all around the world`



I wanna see, Mr. Davis

Wanna talk to Mr. Walter Davis

I want him to do my a favor

Make me `quainted with some pretty little girl

Now that, I want her to be real brown-skinned

With her hair hangin` down in curls



(harmonica & guitar)



Now, you can tell it to the eagle

You can tell it to the eagle

Let him take it out in the

Let him take it out in, the west

We`re goin` to top of Smokey Mountain

That`s where the eagle builds his nest



Now, I`ll see you, baby

I`ll see you, baby

When you`re down now, just like my world

When you`re down now, just like myself

Now that, I`ll meet you some lonesome day

An you won`t be in love wit` nobody else.
