I left Corrina way 'cross the sea
Lord, I left Corrina way 'cross the sea
She wouldn't write me no letter, she don't care for me

Oh, Corrine, why you been so long?
Oh, Corrina, why you been so long?
Corrina, Corrine, why'd you stay last night?

Oh, Corrina, why'd you stay last night?
Come in this morning, clothes ain't fittin' you right

Oh, Corrine, why you been so long?
Oh, Corrina, why you been so long?
