There's a Red House over yonder

That's where my baby stays

Lord, there's a Red House over yonder

Lord, that's where my baby stays

I ain't been home to see my baby,

in ninety nine and one half days.

Wait a minute something's wrong here

The key won't unlock this door.

Wait a minute something's wrong

Lord, have mercy,

this key won't unlock this door,

something's goin' on here.

I have a bad bad feeling

that my baby don't live here no more.

That's all right, I still got my guitar

Look out now . . .

I might as well a

Go back over yonder

Way back up on the hill

Lord I might as well go back over yonder

way back yonder 'cross the hill,

'Cause if my baby don't love me no more,

I know her sister will!
