Charles Edward Anderson "Chuck" Berry (born October 18, 1926) is an immensely influential American guitarist, singer, and composer, and one of the pioneers of rock & roll music. Berry was born in St. Louis, Missouri and was part of the first group to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on its opening in 1986. Though playing what was considered Rhythm & Blues (R & B), in retrospect Berry is now seen by many as more of a rockabilly (rather than R & B) singer. However, he was the real poet of 1950s rock 'n' roll.

My Woman Lyrics
Chuck Berry
Last night as I lay me down in bed
Over and over I heard the last words my woman said
Take me with you, I'm so lonesome
But I choose to leave instead
Yesterday, she came to me and held my hand
Said she was blue and oh so lonesome
And would I try to understand
I didn't know till this morning
How much my woman means to me
This morning when I got home, she was not there
I noticed her clothes were gone
And a little note lay on my shelf
Said as you read this, I love you still
But I'll be gone, I don't know where
Today I got the blues and I got 'em bad
Last night as I lay sleeping
My conscious will not go to rest
Yesterday I lost the best woman I ever had
One of these days, can't say where and I don't know when
It may be in time, it may be soon
It may be in a place I've never been
But I'm gonna find that fine woman
And together with her again
