I Had Me a Girl Lyrics
I had me a girl
Who taught me those things
A young man should know
Down, down on my knees
I'd beg and I'd plead
To learn a little bit more
Prehorus
Oh that woman taught me to pray
I saw Heaven every day
Lord, she could,
horus
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh
I had me a boy
who buttoned me down
Drew me a line
He, he washed me as clean
As a sinner could be
Showed me the light
Oh that boy, he taught me to pray
But for all of his spit-shinin' ways
Lord, he could,
horus
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh
Instrumental part
G G/F# Em x3
(in the original song this part is (almost) a capella, but I'm adding chords anyway for convenience)
I had me a girl
Like cigarette smoke
She came and she went
I slipped through his hands
To my back door man
Under his chin
Oh that woman taught me to pray
But for all her wandering ways
She could,
horus
Ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh oooh oooh ooh
ooooooooh
