Say, when I went to work this mornin', Isabel packed her suitcase and left
Said, "Now please come back to me, Isabel, 'cause I love you the best."

Says, now she keep the house, boy, so nice and clean
She's one of the sweetest little women that you most ever seen
She works from mornin' until night
She never stops workin' 'til the work's just right
Yes, I'm worried about Isabel, now please come back to me, Isabel
Hee well well, I'll be just as good as any man can be

Says, I love you, Isabel, I can't help myself
If you don't have me, honey, you won't have nobody else
I'm gonna buy myself a razor and a shiny gun
I'm gonna cut you if you stand and I'm gonna shoot you if you run
Say, yes, I'm worried about Isabel, now please come back to me, Isabel
Hee well well, I'll be just as good as any man can be

Says, sometime she gets just like a tiger in a cage
When she start to walkin', says, she begins to rage
If she get mad I don't know where she belong to me
You see, I got to be mighty careful, 'cause she'll sting me like a bee
Yes, I'm worried about Isabel, now, please come back to me, Isabel
Hee well well, I'll be just as good as any man can be
