When I Was a Freeport and You Were the Main Drag

You took my heart, misery

You taught me blues

Well, I got a lot of patience, baby

That's a lot of patience to loseI've been treated bad

When I was a Freeport

And you were the main dragBroken blues

I just don't know

Little bird

Flyin' by my windowTake me when you go, I lookin' at these times

And it's bound to drive me mad

When I was a Freeport

And you were the main dragWhat did I do?

Everybody's puttin' me down

I keep runnin'

But the law kept comin' aroundSo fare thee well happiness

'Cause I've got blues

And I got a lot of patience, baby

That's a lot of patience to loseI'm a woman and this is my due time

I've been treated bad

When I was a Freeport

And you were the main drag
