In My Girlish Days
Memphis Minnie
[Verse 1]
D
Late hours at night, trying to play my hand
G
Through my window, out stepped a man
D
I didn't know no better
A D A
Oh Lord, in my girlish days
[Verse 2]
D
My mama cried, papa did, too
G
Oh, daughter, what a shame on you
D
I didn't know no better
A D A
Oh Lord, in my girlish days
[Verse 3]
D
I flagged a train, didn't have a dime
G
Trying to run away from that home of mine
D
I didn't know no better
A D
Oh Lord, in my girlish days
[Verse 4]
D
I hit the highway, caught me a truck
G
Nineteen and seventeen, when the winter was tough
D
I didn't know no better
A D A
Oh Lord, in my girlish days
[Verse 5]

All of my playmates is not surprised,
G
I had to travel b'fore I got wise
D
I found out better
A D A D
And I still got my girlish ways
