hide 'nor hair

ohhhh

i was lying in the bed with fever

and i was

burning up inside

my baby walked

in my bedroom

and i could hardly open my eyes

she said that she was going to the pawnshop

just across the track

she started packing some clothes in a hurry

and then she said she would be right back

but i ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby

since that day

yeah

well i ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby

since she went away

i remember so well when she slammed the door

but the girl didn't make it back no more

i ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby

since that day

well

i waited for 24 hours

and i was just about to starve to death

it didn't look like she was comin' back

so i had to look out for myself

well i called

the police department

to find out what they knew

they said
