Have you heard a woman moan late into the night cause her man is gone?

Have you heard
a woman moan
late into the night
cause her man is gone?
Have you heard

a woman wail
just before dawn
cause her man is gone
Have you heard her cry

Oh, Jesus  Jesus Jesus
before noon time
cause her man is gone

"He wears hard gray pants
stripes are really yellow
He wears hard gray pants
stripes are really yellow
but when he starts to love me
he's so fine and mellow."

Have you heard a woman cry
cause her man is gone.
She wanted to slap him
one more time
but her man is gone
wanted to tell him
one more time
what's on her mind
but her man is gone
wanted to dig up his bones
to kiss him one more time
but her man is gone.
