Lead Belly
You Cain’ Loose-A-Me Cholly (126-A-2)
[Chorus]
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy

[Verse 1]
Hog and a sheep, they went to the pasture
Hog said to sheep, "you'd better get a little faster"
Every time she turned around, she said it so funny

[Chorus]
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy

[Verse 2]
Up to Willie Winston's I went a-roading
Down on my knees, I was doing little courting
Every time she turned around, she said it so funny

[Chorus]
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
[Verse 3]
I got a yella gal I can't keep
She use up the dollar money every week
Every time she turned around, she said it so funny

[Chorus]
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
You can't lose-a me, Charlie
You can't lose-a me, boy
