I wrote new words to Blind Blake's tune:
I went to town just the other day,
I met an old friend along the way,
She said, man can you come over tonight,
I said, my wife is busy but it'd be all right,
Well that'll never happen no more, that'll never happen no more.

She was dressed for bed, I said I hope I'm not late,
She said no sir, man, you're right on time,
Take your shoes off and open that wine,
Well that'll....
I said I've never really done this before
She said when we're done, we'll do it some more
My head was spinning, it was starting to ring,
When the doorbell did the same damn thing,
Well that'll...
There stood my wife looking angry and mean
She called my old friend something obscene,
Grabbed me by the nose and away we did go,
No shoes on my feet, I stubbed my big toe,
Well that'll...
She took me home; we had a big fight,
She did forgive me; we were doing all right,
I stubbed my other toe, getting into bed,
But it felt much better; you heard what I said,
Well that'll never....
