Lyrics

Tell me, milk cow, what on earth is wrong with you?
Ooo ooo, milk cow, what on earth is wrong with you?
Now, you left your calf, hoo hoo, and your milk is turnin' blue

Oh your calf is hungry and I believe he needs a suck
Lord, your calf is hungry and I believe he needs a suck
But your milk is turnin' blue, hoo hoo, I believe he's outta luck

Now, I feel like milkin' and my cow won't come
I feel like churnin' and my milk won't turn
I'm cryin', please, please, don't do me wrong
If you see my milk cow, baby, now-how, please, drive her home

My milk cow been ramblin', hoo hoo, for miles around
My milk cow been ramblin', hoo hoo, for miles around
Well how can you suck on some other man's bull cow
Hoo hoo, with the same man in town
