Why can't you behave?
Oh, why can't you behave?
After all the things you told me
And the promises that you gave
Oh, why can't you behave?
Why can't you be good?
And do just as you should
Wont' you turn that new leaf over
so your baby can be your slave
Oh, why can't you behave?
There's a farm I know near my old hometown
Where we two can go and try settlin' down
There I'll care for you forever
Or at least til you dig my grave
Oh, why can't you behave?
You know I need ya, kid
I always knew you did
But why can't you behave?
