Now, an I know'd you didn't love me
Babe you didn't mean a word you said
I know you didn't love me, baby
That's the reason you shakin' yo head
But oh, drink on, now
Drink on little girl, drink on-a
A-now, you 'on wake up some-a-these mo'nin
You know, an find yo baby gone
Well, I've got another good woman
A-she's just about the size-a me
A-you know, I'm about fo' feet fo'
Oh, an you know, my little woman's about fo' foot three
A-but drink on, now
Drink on little girl, drink on
Now, you gon' wake up some-a-these mo'n
You know, an find yo baby gone, now
Now well now, tell me if you love me, baby

An you gonna change my happy home
