Four Until Late

From four until late,

I was wringing my hands and crying.

From four until late,

I was wringing my hands and crying.

I believe to my soul

That your daddy's Gulfport bound.

From four until late,

She made me a no-good barroom clown.

From four until late,

She made me a no-good barroom clown.

You know, she won't do nothing

But tear a good man's reputation down.

A woman is like a dresser,

Some man always running through its drawers.

A woman is like a dresser,

Some man always running through its drawers.

She cause so many men

To wear an apron overall.

When I leave this town,

I will bid you fare farewell.

When I leave this town,

I will bid you fare farewell.

And when I return again,

You'll have a great long story to tell.
