C.C. rider, see what you've gone done
Lord, Lord, Lord, made me love you
Now, your dear done come, you made me love you
Now, your man done come

Now, I'm goin' away, baby, won't be back till fall
Lord, Lord, Lord, I'm goin' away, baby, won't be back till fall
And if I find me a good girl, I won't be back at all

C.C. rider, where did you stay last night
Lord, Lord, Lord, your choosin' buttons
Your clothes don't fit you right
And you didn't come home till the sun was shinin' bright
