Lyrics When My First Wife Left Me - John Lee Hooker

When my first wife left me
I said I won't gonna get married no more
When my first wife left me
I said I won't gonna get married no more

I started drinking and gambling, travelling all night and day
I started drinking and gambling, running around all night and day
I started drinking and gambling, running around all night and day
I had a good girl, but I did not treat her right

If I get my wife back again
Boys, I ain't gonna run around no more
Get my wife back again
I ain't gonna run around no more
I'm gonna stay at home and live with a mad man, sure

Yes, yes, yes, thank you, alright, nothing but so-
