Oh, baby, look how you got me standin' around cyin'
Oh, baby, look how you got me standin' around cyin'
I know I don't love you, little girl,
but, your always restin' on my mind
Oh baby, I ain't gonna be ridin' ya around in my automobile
Oh baby, I ain't gonna be ridin' ya around in my automobile
You got so many men,
that I'm afraid you may get me killed
Oh baby, you ain't nothin' like you used to be
Oh no, don't get me killed, honey
Oh baby, you ain't nothin' like you used to be
When I was deep in love with you little girl,
you was just sweet as an apple on a tree
