Verse 1
(Elmore James, Marshall Sehorn, Sonny Boy Williamson)
[A]Ain't but one way out baby, lord I just can't go out the
door.
[D]Ain't but one way out baby, lord I just can't go out the
[A]door.
Cause there's a [E]man down there, [D]might be your man I don't
[A]know.
[A]Lord you got me trapped woman, up on the second floor;
If I get by this time I won't be trapped no more.
[D]So raise our window baby, I can ease out soft and [A]slow.
And lord, your [E]neighbors, no they won't be
[D]Talking that stuff that they don't [A]know.
[A]Lord, I'm foolish to be here in the first place,
I know some man gonna walk in and take my place.
[D]Ain't no way in the world, I'm going out that front [A]door
Cause there's a [E]man down there, [D]might be your man I don't
[A]know.
Cause there's a [E]man down there, [D]might be your man I don't
[A]know.
Cause there's a [E]man down there, [D]might be your man I don't
[A]know.
