I [Db] really thought that [Ab] I was wise, _ till a woman make me _ [Eb] realize, that of the [Db] proper knowledge I [Ab] was nude.
For I [Eb] did not know what them call [Ab] night fool, rain [Db] begin to fall, the night [Ab] was dark.
On a ladies veranda I [Eb] had to pass, she [Db] come and say why you stay [Ab] _ outside, when there is warmth and food inside. _ _
