Hey Mister
Composer(s): Spooner Oldham - Dan Penn
Performer(s): Sandy Posey



Mister
Mister have you got a dime
I want to call my mother
Down in Caroline

A random man took advantage of me
He said he'd show me the bright city lights
He took my love and then he was gone
and now I'm stranded in the windy seas

Ooh Mister
Mister would you take the time
To give me some directions
to the nearest wellfare line

O lord how I want to go home
I need the love of my family
Dig down in the depth of your heart
Please Mister have pitty on me

Mister
hey mister
can't you spare me one thin dime
I've got to talk to mother, dear mother
down in Caroline
A ramblin' man done took advantage of me
He said he'd show me the bright city lights ...
