Lyrics: Traditional? Music: Traditional?
This circulates on a tape thought to be the Second Story Men from sometime in 1963. It's just Pigpen on guitar and vocals. Thanks to Matt Schofield for the transcription.
The lyrics share verses in common with Katie Mae by Lightnin' Hopkins. Hopkins also recorded a song titled "It's Hard To Love A Woman" or similar, which may be a source for the other verses.
Well hard to love a woman When that woman she don't love you now Hey now hard to love a woman Well now that woman don't love you [Tell your poor mind] on a woman baby And you [rest of line inaudible] Well now my mama said son Well now best of friends they got to part Well you know my mama said son You know best of friend have got to part Well you know some [?] [puttin' on a child] They put them right deep down in the heart Well that's alright now I said (note 1) Somebody's [gonna get it] Carrying on like that Down around all across town Man you don't feel no good Well I know that woman is evil Evil as a woman can be Well I know some folks say she must be a Cadillac But I think she must be a T Model Ford Well now some folks say she must be a Cadillac But I say she must be a T Model Ford Well man you know she got the shape all right Can't carry no heavy load Well now say goodbye, goodbye [to Katie] (note 2) Well that's the last word I got to say Well I said goodbye [to Katie] That's the last word I've got to say Well now if I don't reach it tomorrow Hope I reach it [first ?] any day
Notes (1) this and the next four lines are spoken (2) sounds more like "goodbye cocaine" but "Katie" fits in with lyrics to Katie Mae
