MEMPHIS MINNIE IN MY GIRLISH DAYS Late hours at night, trying to play my hand Through my window, out stepped a man I didnt know no better Oh boys In my girlish days My mama cried, papa did, too Oh, daughter, look what a shame on you I didnt know no better Oh boys In my girlish days I flagged a train*, didnt have a dime Trying to run away from that home of mine I didnt know no better Oh boys In my girlish days I hit the highway, caught me a truck Nineteen and seventeen, when the winter was tough I didnt know no better Oh boys In my girlish days (spoken: Lord, play it for me now) All of my playmates is not surprised, I had to travel fore I got wise I found out better And I still got my girlish ways *a blues lyric: 1 - to signal with or as if with a flag to stop I flagged the train, often used with down; 2 - to hitch a (train) ride https://youtube/watch?v=3TDFK5F4zDM
