When I was a little boy, Lord, about sixteen inches high
When I was a little boy, baby, about sixteen inches high
I had a mean stepfather, Lord, he didn't want me to eat a bite
I got a mean stepfather, now, know you got one too
I got a mean stepfather and I know you have one too
Since my mother been gone, nothing in the world that he will do
Well, my mother she gone and I hope she gone to stay
Well, my mother she gone, Lord, and I hope she gone to stay
I have me a stepfather, he done drove me away
When I was a little boy, Lord, my stepfather didn't allow me around
When I was a little boy, mama, my stepfather didn't allow me around
He's a no good weed, mama, and the cloud gonna blow him down
Well, cause you're leaving this morning, my face is full of frowns
Well, I'm leaving this morning, my face is full of frowns
I got a mean stepfather and my dear mother she don't allow me round
That's alright, may be home someday
Lord, Lord, mama, may be home someday
My mean stepfather, won't give me no place to lay
I am a little boy, I'm crying all night long
Lord, I'm a little boy, I'm crying the whole night long
My stepfather, he, well, he done done me wrong
It's for a happy dog, mama, I leave my happy home
For a happy dog, now baby, I leave my happy home
He's a no good weed, well, don't know
