I packed up all my books

I packed up all my clothes

Ready to hit the road

Don’t know where life is leading poor me

Now that I don’t have a home

 

Well I looked high and I looked low

For lovers to care for me

You know I’m longing to find me a pretty little girl

With a heart so true and free

 

I pray that the good Lord sends her to me

Pray that he sends her soon

‘Cause I’ve been out all night with the dogs in the moonlight

Howling at that old moon

 

Well the bees are making honey

There’s leaves upon the trees

The birds have begun to sing

Somewhere in this world you know there’s gotta be a girl

Looking for a fella just like me
