Look out there man, I got some mad man blues!

I come home last night about nine o'clock.
Early one day at my baby's, I knocked an I knocked.
Got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Man, don't ya know, don't ya know.

Yes, I know it!

I'm gonna take you down by the riverside.
Hang you up my baby, by your neck.
I got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Man, don't cha know, don't cha know.

(Guitar solo)
Watch out there, man!

Baby, now I begged you the night befo'
You'll not stay out, don't let me down.
I got the mad man blues.
Yeah.
Got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Now, man don't cha know, don't cha know.

(Guitar solo)

Yes, I know.

I'm gonna take you oh my baby, on an easy ride.
Drop you off by the riverside.
I got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Got the mad man blues.
Baby, don't ya know, don't ya know.
Yeah!
