I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raisin' sand
Said, "Stroll back you gangway, I'm lookin' for my man"
Oh, my babe, why don't you come home?
I got a brand new razor and a .44 gun
Gonna cut you if you stay here, gonna shoot you if you run
And oh, my babe, why don't you come home?
I said, I went down to the hop joint, hop joint raisin' sand
Said, "Stroll back you gangway, I'm lookin' for that man"
Oh, my babe, why don't you come home?
