Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I wore my forty four so long

I've made my shoulder sore

I wore my forty four so long

I've made my shoulder sore

Well, I'm wonderin' everybody

Where'd my baby go?

[Verse 2]

Well, I'm so mad this mornin'

I don't know where in the world to go

Well, I'm so mad this mornin'

I don't know where in the world to go

Well, I'm lookin' for me some money

Pawned gun to have some gold
