Black Gal, What Makes Your Head So Hard?
Alexander, Alger "Texas"
Black gal, black gal,
What make your doggone head so hard?
Black gal, black gal,
What make your doggone head so hard?
Well you know I would come to see you
(But your) Best man got me bad
You know I love you, you know I love you,
That's why you treat me like you do
You know I love you, you know I love you,
That's why you treat me like you do
You know just like you treat poor Lightnin'
Someone treat you the same way too
When I had my bonus, had my bonus,
You follow me all over town
When I had my bonus, had my bonus,
You follow me all over town
Now since I ain't got no money
Black gal, you can't be found
I caught a Katie1, she caught a Katie,
And I caught on behind
She caught a Katie, poor Lightnin' caught on behind
And that whistle began to blow
Only saint2 pacify my mind
__________
1) Katie, Katy, or KT stands for
Kansas and Texas Railroad (K&T);
