Well, her love was a habit and I tried to kick it
So I went downtown and bought a one-way ticket
And I rode that Greyhound down to Macon
Then I hitchhiked back 'cause my heart was breakin'
Oh, now I see
It's destiny
I can't be free
I'm her love slave
Janie Baker's love slave
When I'm close to her, my heart starts a-thumpin'
When she says "froggie," I can't help but jumpin'
She's got a hold on me and there's no escapin'
Yeah, it's a ball and chain of my own makin'
Oh, now I see
It's destiny
I can't be free
Well, I'm her love slave
Janie Baker's love slave
Yeah, I used to go bowlin', used to go a-fishin'
Used to go a-drinkin', too
But since I've been exposed to her kind of kissin'
There's nothin' else I wanna do
Well, I'm her love slave
