[Verse 1]
House catch on fire and ain't no water 'round
If your house catch on fire, ain't no water 'round
Throw your trunk out the window, building burnin' all down
[Verse 2]
I went to the gypsy to have my fortune told
I went to the gypsy to have my fortune told
He said, "Doggone you girlie, doggone your bad luck soul"
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I turned around, went to the gypsy next door
I turned around, went to the gypsy next door
He said, "You can get a man anywhere you go"
[Verse 4]
Let me be your rag doll until your [?] comes
Let me be your rag doll 'til your [?] comes
If he beats me ragged, he's got to rag it some
