Now, I am a G man

Knockin' on yo' door

Now, I am a G man

Knockin' on yo' door

Now you done got yourself in trouble

An now you got to go



Lady, please don't kill nobody

Go ahead an have your way

Lady, please don't kill nobody

Go ahead an have your way

But the day you kill somebody

I'll lock you up that day



Please lady, please lady

Please treat ev'rybody right

Please lady, please lady

Please treat ev'rybody right

Please don't be no murder'er

Please take my advise



'Play that thing, boy'

'Play it'



(guitar)



Now I been wantin' to be a G man

Baby, all my life

I've been longin' to be a G man

Baby, all my life

Because my poor mother was murdered

My brother an my wife.
