I got an ache in my heart Messed up as I can be I can't take anymore Sad as I can be I don't want us to go there The hotel has got the best of me She's mean and she's evil But I work both night and day I say she's mean and she's evil You know I work both night and day You don't just sit tight tonight Oh, child I'mma make my getaway I'm goin' back down South I need a warm welcome that suits my clothes And I won't stop your new luck, baby Honey, I don't care where you go I walk alone, lone What she done to me? What she done to me? You know I'mma find me someone Lone child, not who I used to be
