[Intro]
Em G Am Em
[Verse 1]
EmFunny how she calls tonight, I Gneed her more than ever
I've been Amdown in low cotton, as lonesome as can Embe
EmAnd I think about her often, boys, and eGven when I'm sober
AmRead over the love notes, the ones she wrote for Emme
B11And if she wants one night, that'd be just fine, well
[Chorus]
EmSomebody fetch my walkin' cane, IG'm gonna get my baby
AmI'm gonna run to meet her 'neath the shadow of the Empines
EmShe's gonna hop that coal train, sGhe'll get off on Harlan Road
AmLove me till the mornin' comes, leave me like a Emdream
[Instrumental]
Em G Am Em
[Verse 2]
EmAnd I'd run to her through tobacco fields, and Gover across the clover
AmI'd wade a mile of briar patch, boys, just to touch her Emskin
EmI reckon I'm the foolish kind, to Gbeckon to her callin'
AmBut I can't seem to help myself, let that woman Emwin
B11And if she wants one night, I'm gonna get what's mine, well
[Chorus]
EmSomebody fetch my walkin' cane, IG'm gonna get my baby

AmLove me till the mornin' comes, leave me like a Emdream

B11Buddy, all I know, is I can't win for losing
Either Amlay here in this lonely room
Or B11let her have her way
B11Buddy, all I need is one night where she don't leave
And Amthis one just might be the night, B11she decides to stay
[Chorus]
