Tell me whose

Baby, whose old muddy shoes I see?

Now, tell me whose

Baby, whose old muddy shoes I see?

They’re down at the head of my bed, darling

Where my shoes outta be

My baby and I got along just fine

Until she went wrong

I woke up in the mornin

Now, tell me whose

Baby, whose old muddy shoes I see?

Well, down at the head of my bed, darling

Where my shoes ought to be

Her hair was long and curly

And her teeth shine just like pearl

She wake up in the mornin'

She jump just like a squirrel

Now, tell me whose

Baby, whose old muddy shoes I see?

Well, they’re down at the head of my bed, darling

Where my shoes ought to be

Now, when I love her in the mornin'

She always stay at home

But, now she’s gone and left me

She left me all alone

Now, tell me whose

Baby, whose old muddy shoes I see?

Well, they down at the head of my bed

Where my shoes ought to be
