I'm a get up in the mornin'   I believe I'll dust my broom   I'm a get up in the mornin'   I believe I'll dust my broom   I quit the best girl I'm lovin'   Now my friends can get in my room      I'm gonna write a letter, telephone every town I know   I'm gonna write a letter, telephone every town I know   If I don't find her in ? (Matilda or West Hills, Lord) ?   She be in East Monroe I know      And I don't want no woman   Want every downtown man she meets   No I don't want no woman   Want every downtown man she meets   Man, she's a no good doney   They shouldn't allow her on the street, yeah      I believe, I believe my time ain't long   I believe, I believe my time ain't long   I ain't gonna leave my baby   And break up my happy home
