My baby treat me so mean
I don’t know right from wrong
My baby treat me so mean
I don’t know right from wrong
I’m here, today
But tomorrow I may be gone
I had so much trouble
Until I don’t know what to do
I had so much trouble
Until I don’t know what to do
The way you treat me, baby
Is comin' home to you
Because I’m dogged around
Baby, and drivin' from do' to do'
Yeah-ay
Baby, an driven from do' to do'
But I raise my hand
I won’t be dogged no mo'
'Now boy, let’s get this thing'
(slow piano boogie & guitar)
So good-bye, baby
Yes, I’m leavin', now
So, bye-bye, baby
Babe, I’m leavin' now
Because you done me
Me, no good, now how
