I used to have a woman
|
That lived up on the hill
|
I used to have a woman
|
That lived up on the hill
|
She was crazy about me
|
Hoo-well-well, because I worked at the Chicago Mill
|
|
You can hear the womens hollin'
|
When the Chicago Mill whistle blow
|
You can hear the womens hollin'
|
When the Chicago Mill whistle blow
|
Cryin, 'Let loose my man
|
Hoo-well-well, please, and let him go home'
|
|
If you want a-plenty women
|
Boys, work at the Chicago Mill
|
If you want plenty women
|
Boys, work at the Chicago Mill
|
You don't have to give them nothin'
|
Hoo-well-well, just tell them that you will
|
|
When I went to work
|
I worked at the Chicago Mill
|
When I went to work
|
I worked at the Chicago Mill
|
So I could get plenty womens
|
Ooo-well-well, at my free, good, will
|
|
So, bye-bye, boys
|
Go on and have your thrill
|
So, bye-bye, boys
|
Go on and have your thrill
|
You don't need no money
|
Just say you work at the Chicago Mill.
