MINGLEWOOD BLUES
As recorded by Cannon's Jug Stompers (1928)

Don't you never let one woman worry your mind (2)
Then she keep you worried, worried all the time

Don't you wish your Sarah was little & cute like mine (2)
She's a married woman but she comes to see me some time

Don't you never let your woman rule your mind (2)
She keep you troubled, worried all the time

Well I got a letter, lord, you ought to heard it read (2)
If you're coming back baby now be on your way

The liner notes have the first line of the second verse as "Don't you wish your faro was little & cute like mine" but it sounds to me like he's saying "Sarah" and I'm not sure what "faro" would mean.
