Can't Live Here
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well you can't live here like this anymore
No you can't live here like this anymore
No you can't live here like this
Cause your man he ain't gonna like it
No you can't live here like this anymore
What's your mama gonna say
About you when you get home
What's your mama gonna say
About you when you get home
She's gonna whip your butt for sure now
She's gonna wonder what you do now
What's your mama gonna say
About you when you get home
You better slip on across that fence
Where you belong
You better get on back there quick
Before they know you're gone
No you can't live here like this
Cause your people ain't gonna like it
No you can't live here like this anymore
