(words & music by k. arnold)
Oh Well, I woke up this morning,
And I looked out the door.
I can tell that old milk cow
By the way she lowed.
Hold it fellows, that don't move me.
Let's get real, real gone for a change.
Well, I woke up this morning
And I looked out the door
I can tell that old milk cow
I can tell the way she lowed.
Now, if you see my milk cow,
Please ride her on home.
I ain't had no milk and butter
Since that cow's been gone.
Well, I try to treat you right,
Day by day.
Get out your little prayer book
Get down on your knees and pray.
For you're gonna need,
You're gonna need your loving daddy's help someday.
Well, then you're gonna be sorry
You treated me this way.
Aw, let's milk it.
Well, at the evenin', don't that sun look good going down?
Well, at the evenin', don't that sun look good going down?
Well, don't that old moon look lonesome
When your baby's not around.
Well, I tried everything to get along with you.
I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna quit my crying, I'm gonna leave you alone.
If you don't believe I'm leaving, you can count the days I'm gone.
I'm gonna leave.
You're gonna need your loving daddy's help someday.
Well, then you're gonna be sorry
You treated me this way.
