The man I love, I crave to see,
He's gone up country, won't write to me.
He better come on, in my kitchen,
Cause it's gonna be rainin outdoors

When a woman's in trouble, everybody throws her down,
Looking for her good friend,
none can be found.
You better come on, in my kitchen,
Cause it's gonna be rainin outdoors

I climbed a mountain, High as I could be. somebody's got my man, lonesome blues got me.
You better come on, in my kitchen,
Cause it's gonna be rainin outdoors

Well Momma's gone, Daddy soon will be, ain't got nobody to care for me.

You better come on, in my kitchen,
Cause it's gonna be rainin outdoors
