My old lady, she's a singer in the park
She's a walker in the rain
She's a dancer in the dark
We don't need no piece of paper from the city hall
Keeping us tied and true no, my old lady
Keeping away my blues
She's my sunshine in the morning
She's my fireworks at the end of the day
She's the warmest chord I ever heard
Play that warm chord, play and stay, baby
We don't need no piece of paper from the city hall
Keeping us tied and true, my old lady
Keeping away my blues
But when she's gone
Me and them lonesome blues collide
The bed's too big
The frying pan's too wide
Then she comes home
And she takes me in her loving arms
And she tells me all her troubles
And she tells me all my charms
We don't need no piece of paper from the city hall
Keeping us tied and true, no, my old lady
Keeping away my blues
But when she's gone
Me and them lonesome blues collide
The bed's too big
The frying pan's too wide
My old lady, she's a singer in the park
She's a walker in the rain
She's a dancer in the dark
We don't need no piece of paper from the city hall
Keeping us tied and true, no, my old lady
Keeping away my lonesome blues
