Whoa-oh, tell me baby

Why don't ya hear me cryin'?
Whoo-hooo, whoo-hooo
Whooo

Whoa-oh, tell me baby

Why don't ya hear me cryin'?

Whoa-oh, stop your train
Let a poor boy ride
Why don't ya hear me cryin'?

Whoa-oh, fare ya well
Never see you no more
Why don't ya hear me cryin'?
Whoo-hooo, whoo-hooo
Whooo

Whoa-oh, who been here baby since
I been gone, little bitty boy
Girl, be on
