Hide Nor Hair Lyrics - Berlin, 1962 - Ray Charles

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 

Well I called, the police department, to find out what they knew 

They said, "No, by heck, but we will get her yet", because they was lookin' for her too 

Well 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 

Well I don't know what happened a-cross the track 

But I know my baby didn't make it back 

I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since that day 

(instrumental break) 

Well I called, my Dr. Foster, and when the girl answered the phone 

I got a funny feeling, the way she said Dr. Foster had gone 

She said, "He left with a lady patient, about 24 hours ago" 

I added two and two, and here's what I got: I got I'll never see that girl no more 

Well I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since that day, yeah 

But I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since she went away 

If Dr. Foster has got her, then I know I'm through 

Because he's got medicine and, money too 

I ain't seen hide 'nor hair of my baby, since that day 

Whoaah, no
