Chris Smither Dust My Broom Lyrics

I'm goin' get up in the mornin', I believe I'll dust my
broom
I'm goin' get up in the mornin', I believe I'll dust my
broom
Girlfriend, the black man you been lovin', girlfriend,
can get my room

I'm gon' write a letter, telephone every town I know
I'm gon' write a letter, telephone every town I know
If I can't find her in West Helena, she must be in East
Monroe I know

I don't want no woman, wants every downtown man she
meet
I don't want no woman, wants every downtown man she
meet
She's a no good doney, they shouldn't allow her on the
street I believe, I believe I'll go back home
I believe, I believe I'll go back home
You can mistreat me here, babe, but you can't when I go
home

And I'm gettin' up in the mornin', I believe I'll dust
my broom
I'm gettin' up in the mornin', I believe I'll dust my
broom
Girlfriend, the black man you been lovin', girlfriend,
can get my room

I'm gonna call up Chiney, see is my good girl over
there
I'm gonna call up China, see is my good girl over there
'F I can't find her on Philippine's island, she must be
in Ethiopia somewhere
