This song was written by John Lee Hooker about his wife
Her name was Maudie
Every time he has an argument with her
He has to write a new verse to keep her happy
He was over here in London
Showed right back and told me the song went wilder
Maudie
Oh, Maudie
Baby, I love you
Mmm, baby, I love you, yeah
You've been gone so long
Girl, I miss you so
Oh, Maudie
Why did you hurt me?
Mmm, Maudie
I said, why did you hurt me?
You know I need your sweet lovin'
Like flowers need the rain
Sometimes when they have an argument
He take her by the hand and say
"Maudie, you know I love you
You know I need you
And I got one thing to say, baby"
Hey, Maudie
Baby, don't you know I love you?
Oh, Maudie
I said, baby, don't you know I love you?
I've been gone so long
Girl, I miss you so much
Sometimes John's old lady
She turn around to him and say
"John, you don't quit your messin' around, baby
I'm gonna walk right out of that door
With my bag in my hand"
John would say, "Hey!"
Oh, Maudie
Sweet little girl, baby
Oh, Maudie
Be my sweet little girl, baby
When you touch my hand
My head is all in a whirl, girl, yeah
Oh, and I love you, Maudie
I said, I love you, Maudie
I love you, Maudie
I love you, Maudie
You know I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you, yeah, yeah
I said, Maudie
Baby, I love you
Oh, Maudie
Baby, I love you
You've been gone so long
I miss you too much
I love you
