There?s a Red House over yonder

Well, I ain?t been home to see my baby,

In ninety nine and one half days.

Wait a minute something?s wrong here

The key won?t unlock the door.

Wait a minute something?s wrong baby,

                                             B         F# 
that my baby don?t live here no more.

I might as well go on back over yonder 
E                                           B     B 
Go back 'cross yonder over the hill

?Cause if my baby don?t love me no more, 
                         B       F# 
I know her sister will.
