I had a terrible night
Was in a big streetfight
My baby went away,
I tried to make her stay
I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
I don't know where to find
Another girl like you
We'll I'm so alone
Cause my baby is gone
I'll get a Black Cat's Bone
Gonna bring her back home
I went to see the gipsy
To get my fortune told
I too her hoodoo hand, doggone
My bad luck soul
She gave me some pills
To drive my blues away
You bad lucking rascal
Take em twice a day
I don't tell you no story,
I don't tell you no lie
When I met this woman
I was about to die
Dear hooddoo woman tell me
What to do, she said
Take my advice and she'll
Come back to you
Then she looked at me and I
Layed my money on the line
Bring her back or take her
Offa my mind,
Well, I'm so alone, cause my baby's gone
I'll get a Black Cat's Bone
Gonna bring her back home
