My Gal Lyrics & Chords By Skip James

My gal, oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so hard
Oh my gal, oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so hard
You know you
Got a head just like
Some 2-by-4 in some lumber yard

You know when I plenny a money
I had plenny money
You know you'd follow me
from town to town
When I had plenny money
I had plenny money
You know you'd follow me
from town to town
Lord since I done
lose all of my money
That nappy head woman
she can't be found

You know when I first met you
When I first met you
You know you was down and
you was on the home
When I first met you
When I first met you
You know you was down and
you was on the home
But now since I fell in love with you baby
You treat me just like a dog

You know my gal
You know my gal
You know I bought you some
clothes and some shoes
You know my gal
You know my gal
You know I bought you some
clothes and some shoes
Now you misusing me baby
Honey and that's the way,
the way you do

Oh but I'm going to find her
Yes I'm going to find her
With my smokin' smokin' 44
I'm going to find her
I'm going to find her
With my smokin' smokin' 44
Then when I find that hard headed woman
I bet her head will never
be hard no more

You know my gal
Oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so hard
Oh my gal
Oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so...
You know I would have done come to see you
But your best man, he got me barred

Oh my gal
Oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so hard
Oh my gal
Oh my gal
I wonder what in the world make your
head so hard
Because you got a head just like
Some 2-by-4 in some lumber yard
