Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
Lucille, you don't do your daddy's will
There ain't nothin' to ya, but I love you still
(alternate:
Lucille, you won't do your sister's will
Lucille, you won't do your sister's will
You ran off and left, but I love you still)
Lucille, please come back where you belong
Oh, Lucille, please come back where you belong
I been good to you, baby, please, don't leave me alone.
I woke up this mornin'
Lucille was not in sight
(I) asked her friends about her
(But) all their lips were tight
Lucille, please come back where you belong
Oh, Lucille, please come back where you belong
I been good to you, baby, please, don't leave me alone.
Lucille, you don't do your Daddy's will
Oh, Lucille, you don't do your Daddy's will
There ain't nothin' to ya, but I love you still
Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart.
Oh, Lucille, baby, satisfy my heart.
I slaved for you, baby, and gave you such a wonderful start.
