Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Whoa, I asked her for water
Whoa, she brought me gasoline
Whoa, asked her for water
Whoa, she brought me gasoline
That's the troublest wa-hoo
That I ever seen
[Verse 2]
Whoa, the church bell is tollin'
Whoa, the hearse come drivin' slow
Whoa, the church bell tollin'
Whoa, the hearse come drivin' slow
I hope my baby, ooh, don't leave me no more
[Verse 3]
Whoa, tell me, baby
Whoa, when are you comin' back home?
Whoa, tell me, baby
Whoa, when are you comin' back home?
You know I love you, babe
But you've been gone too long
