Lyrics Clark, Jr., Gary – Next Door Neighbor Blues

Got a call from my neighbor this morning
Told me my baby was gone
Got a call from my neighbor this morning
Told me my baby was gone

Took the keys to my Cadillac
Left my clothes out on the lawn

Came home last night
Put a pistol pointed at my head
Came home last night
With a pistol pointed at my head

She said, «You’d best fess up, boy
Or I swear I’m gonna shoot you dead.»

I should’ve known something was wrong
Somethin’ wrong been going on

I should’ve known
I should’ve known somethin’ was going wrong
When my neighbor calls

Then soon after did I find out
That little girl moved in next door
