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.

I can't keep walkin' down the street

'fore some pretty daddy start breakin' down with me

Stop breakin' down

Please, please, stop breakin' down

I got the stuff that'll bust your brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind

These no good men love to ape and clown

They don't do nothin' but tear my good reputation down

Stop breakin' down

Please, please, stop breakin' down

I got the stuff that'll bust you brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind

I can't walk the streets now, i can't consolate my mind

'fore some no good man starts breakin' down

Stop breakin' down

Please, please, stop breakin' down

I got the stuff that'll bust your brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind

I give my baby the ninety-ninth degree

Then he rose up and brought a pistol down on me

Stop breakin' down

Please, please, stop breakin' down

I got the stuff that'll bust your brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind

I can't keep walkin' down the street

'fore some no good man start breakin' down with me

Stop breakin' down

Please, please, stop breakin' down

I got the stuff that'll bust your brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind

I got the stuff that'll bust your brains out, baby

Make you lose your mind
