A         F#m7            Em         G
 Left Los Angeles a short while ago

A                F#m7            Em         G
 Flew 'cross the country back to Buffalo

A        F#m7              Em               G
 Walked around through the sleet and the snow

      A       F#m7       Em         G
With a red bandana on my head
[Verse 2]
A       F#m7     Em            G
 Saw my momma on 12th and Grand

A                F#m7           Em          G
 Standing in the alley with the junkyard man

A                 F#m7              Em           G
 They was both so loaded they could hardly stand

A              F#m7         Em       G
 Talkin' 'bout going to Mexico
[Bridge]
       A             C         F                 G
I said, "Momma I was born, out there I was born again

A              C              F       G
 Been clear to California and back

A                 C         F                     G
 Was out there so long many times I thought I was dead"

         F                                               E
She said, "Sonny what's that you got wrapped around your head?"

A               F#m7    Em          G
 Looked for the woman I used to love

A              F#m7        Em          G
 Seen her in a bar off the Harlem road

A             F#m7       Em          G
 Talking in a booth with Charley Hobbs

A                     F#m7        Em          G
 And this ugly little dude whom I didn't know
[Bridge]
        A              C        F         G
She said "Honey you're back I'm so glad

A             C          F       G
 When you was gone I was so sad

A            C            F       G
 You come in here lookin' so bad

         A       C            F       G
With that red bandana on your head

         A       C            F       G
With that red bandana on your head"   Yes!
