I've been far and wide
Looking for a woman
That won't hurt my pride
You said, "I couldn't do it on a bet"
Well now baby, I ain't through yet

I've come around lookin' for you
Oh, now baby, what you gonna do

I've been down to New Orleans
Seen all them delta queens
Been up to Tennessee
Ooh, them women were good to me
Took a bite of a Georgia peach
Um, but the taste was bitter-sweet

I've come around lookin' for you
Oh, now baby, what you gonna do

I might go up to Ohio
Then down to Mexico
Stop on by San Anton'
Gotta see her Alamo
Then it's off to California
Where the girls are pretty and the skies are blue

I've come around lookin' for you
Oh, now baby, what you gonna do

I've been far and wide
Looking for a woman
That won't hurt my pride
I'm not one to lose a bet
So, oh, now girls, I ain't through yet

I've come around lookin' for you
Oh, now baby, what you gonna do
