I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raising sand
Said, "Stroll back your gangway, looking for my man"
Oh my babe, why don't you come home

I got a brand new razor, and a .44 gun
Oughta cut you if you stay here, gonna shoot you if you run
Oh my babe, why don't you come home

I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raising sand
Said, "Stroll back your gangway, looking for my man"
Oh my babe, why don't you come home
