Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby
|
Lord, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die
|
So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
|
Well I got a crow I wanna pick with you
|
Just like last time when the feathers flew
|
You're runnin' wild kickin' up your heels
|
A-leavin' me home with a hand full of bills
|
Lord, I can't live without you and you know it's true
|
But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do
|
I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as I can
|
And maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good man
|
|
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby cry
|
No, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die
|
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
|
Well, now I don't know, but I've heard say
|
That ever' little dog is a-gonna have his day
|
You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget
|
'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yet
|
Well, I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
|
The thing to do was leave you, but I should'a left then
|
Now I'm too old to leave you, but I still get sore
|
When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door
|
|
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby
|
Lord, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die
|
So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
|
Tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why
|
