Don't ease, don't ease
Don't ease me in
I've been all night long, coming home
Don't ease me in

I was standing at the corner
Talking to Miss Brown
Well, I turned around, sweet momma
She was way cross town

So, I'm walking down the street
With a dollar in my hand
I've been looking for a woman, sweet momma
Ain't got no man

Don't ease, don't ease
Don't ease me in
I've been all night long, coming home
Don't ease me in

The girl I love
She's sweet and true
You know, the dress she wears, sweet momma
It's pink and blue

She brings me coffee
You know, she brings me tea
She brings me 'bout every damn thing
But the jailhouse key

Don't ease, don't ease
Don't ease me in
I've been all night long, coming home
Don't ease me in

Don't ease, don't ease
Don't ease me in
I've been all night long, coming home
Don't ease me in

Don't ease, don't ease
Don't ease me in
I've been all night long, coming home
Don't ease me in
