Baby, please don't go 

Baby, please don't go 

Baby, please don't go 

Back to New Orlean 

'Cause I love you so 

Baby, please 

She got me way down here 

She got me way down here 

She got me way down here 

By Rolling Fork 

She treat me like a dog 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

From the country farm 

He got his shackles on 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

I get you way down here 

I make you walk the log 

'Play it for me now, while I get me a cigarette' 

(slide guitar) 

Yeah! Yeah! 

'She might not go!' 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

From the county farm 

He got his shackles on 

Turn your lamp down, low 

Turn your lamp down, low 

Turn your lamp down, low 

If it's all night long 

Baby, please don't go 

'Play it while I think it over!' 

(side guitar) 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

I b'lieve your man done come 

From the county farm 

He got his shackles on 

Baby, please don't go 

'Stretch it out, now play it good for me!' 

Turn your lamp down 

Turn your lamp down low 

Turn your lamp down low 

If it's all night long 

She got me way down 

She got me way down 

She got me way down here 

By Rollings Forks 

Treat me like a dog 

Baby, please don't 

Baby, please don't go 

Baby, please don't go 

Back to New Orlean 

Because I love you, so 

Baby, baby here 

Baby, please stay home 

Baby, please don't go 

Back to New Orleans 

Because I love you, so 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

'Fore I be yo' dog 

I get you way down here 

I make you walk the log 

I make you walk the (op!) 

I make you walk that log 

I make you walk that log 

By Rolling Fork 

Baby, please don't go 

'Don't make her walk the log, boy!' 

(slide guitar) 

'Till she fall off!' 

(slide guitar) 

Baby, please don't go 

Baby, please don't go 

Baby, please don't go 

Back to New Orlean 

Because I love you, so 

Turn your lamp down 

Turn your lamp down, low 

Turn your lamp down, low 

If it's all night long 

Baby, please don't go.
