Hello, Pretty Baby

Hello, Pretty Baby

From the album "Ace of Harps" by Charlie Musselwhite

Well now hello, hello, pretty baby
May I ask what may be your name?
May I bother you for a little conversation?
Walking down this old country lane

Now I just rolled in town this morning
My old car it finally broke on down
I was headed way down to New Orleans
Maybe now I can hang around

Well now, baby, baby let me tell you
I fell in love when I saw your walk
And you made me, made me want to hold you
And you caressed me when I heard you talk

She said, "Come on, come on in my house
And let me hold your worried head
I will feed you my good home cooking
Then I'll take you to rolling bed"

Now I'm back, back out on the road
But I'll be coming, coming back some day
To that gal that I left way behind me
With that wild, loving country way
