I married my baby 

Married her for myself 

Then if I's gon' keep her 

Don't want nobody else 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Whatcha do 

 

Now depot agent 

Don't tell me no lie 

Did my baby stop here? 

Did she keep on ride? 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Whatcha do 

 

Now I hate to hear 

Illinois Central blow 

When my feet get tickled 

Makes me wanna go 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Watcha do 

 

When a man does workin' 

Know he's doin' what's right 

Some old lowdown rouster 

Tryin' to steal his wife 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Watcha do 

 

(piano & mandolin) 

 

Now I got up this mornin' 

Couldn't make no time 

I didn't have no blues 

Never thought up any rhymes 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Watcha do 

 

Now take me, baby 

Won't be mean no mo' 

You can get all my lovin' 

Let that black snake go 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

Watcha you do 

 

Now in the mo'nin' 

Rag tied 'round her head 

Ask to cook you a breakfast 

Swears she's near goin' dead 

 

Got to give an account 

Just what 

What you do.
