Lyrics
Yeah, my baby left me this morning
And I don't care now--I don't care what the people say
Yeah, I did everything that I could, everything I could
Lord knows I did everything I could
I tried to satisfy her worried mind--that's what I did
You know she was nothing but trouble, trouble
She keep me worried all the time
God knows her movements are killing me
Yeah, my baby stayed out all night long, all night long
She keep me worried all the time
Yeah, I lay down last night I was thinking
Must I kill that woman? Must I kill that woman?
Oh Lord, I get down on my knees
They tell me God forgivin' everything you do
But I don't care what the people say
I'm gonna kill that woman
I'm gonna kill that woman
God knows
I'm gonna get down on my knees
