lyrics

Oh baby, what’s happenin’ here
Was it happenin’ here before
It’s gonna keep happenin’ here I fear
And I wish it wouldn’t happen no more

I went to the market like my mama told me to
Three dollars, a case quarter and a dime
Give a turkey a little money
He won’t put it in his shoe
Poor turkey gonna blow it every time

Oh baby, what’s happenin’ here
Was it happenin’ here before
It’s gonna keep happenin’ here I fear
And I wish it wouldn’t happen no more

Everywhere I go
I carry this sack
On my back
Everyone I know is walkin’ this track
Whistlin’ to crickets
Without a ticket, wonderin’…

Oh baby, what’s happenin’ here
Was it happenin’ here before
It’s gonna keep happenin’ here I fear
And I wish it wouldn’t happen no more

I went to see my baby
Way down by the creek
Well, she told me she would meet me down there
I was talkin’ to a bullfrog
He said “Yonder come your sweet”
But she was walkin’ and talkin’ to a bear

Oh baby, what’s happenin’ here
Was it happenin’ here before
It’s gonna keep happenin’ here I fear
And I wish it wouldn’t happen no more

Everywhere I go I carry this sack
On my back
Everyone I know is walkin’ this track
Whistlin’ to crickets
Without a ticket, wonderin’…

Oh baby, what’s happenin’ here
Was it happenin’ here before
It’s gonna keep happenin’ here I fear
And I wish it wouldn’t happen no more
I wish it wouldn’t happen no more
