Stack o' dollars

Stack o' dollars

Long as I am tall

Hey now, mama get some

Stack o' dollars

Just long as I am tall

If you be my woman

You can have them all

I heard a-rumblin'

I heard a-rumblin'

Way down in the ground

Hey now mama, an I

I heard a-rumblin'

Way down in the ground

Must of been somebody

Slowly jumpin' down

See two women

See two women

Walkin' hand by hand

Hey now mama, you see

See two women, they

Walkin' hand by hand

They just spinned up something, Lord

Out to fool some man

Went on the mountain

Went on the mountain

Looked down in the sea

Hey now mama, an I

Went on the mountain, an I

Looked down in the sea

Little girls had my womans

Lord, an the blues had me

Baby done quit me

Baby done quit me

Ain’t said a mumblin' word

Hey now mama

Baby’s done quit me

Ain’t said a mumblin' word

It were nothin' that she know’d, Lord

It’s something she had heard.
