Playing The Races lyrics by John Lee Hooker

I don't want no woman
Playin' the races all the time
I don't want no woman
Playin' the races all the time
You know she ain't good for nothin'
She's too broke most all the time

Dreamed her number last night
Yes, yes, yes
And my baby, she did the same
Dreamed her number last night
And my baby did the same
My baby got up this mornin'
And she played it just the same


Yes, man

I come home ev'ry Friday
Throws my check down on the bed
I come home ev'ry Friday
Throw my check down on the bed
My baby takes all-a my money
Put it down on five, six an two
Yes, yes!

I don't want no woman
Play the races all the time
