| Well, love, oh love, oh careless love
|
| Well, you go to my head like wine
|
| Well, you cause me to weep
|
| And you cause me to moan
|
| And you cause me to leave my happy home
|
| The way she wore her apron low
|
| And she was mine through frost and snow (Yeah she was)
|
| But now her apron — her apron strings don’t pin
|
| Well, I pass her door, I do not venture in
|
| You left me tired and I’m hungry — I’m ragged and I’m dirty, too
|
| I said I’m tired and I’m hungry- I’m ragged and I’m dirty, too (See what ya'
|
| done?)
|
| Well, now don’t a-you a-mistreat me
|
| A-just because I’m so young and wild
|
| And don’t forget that you once was a child
|
| {Instrumental]
|
| I said I’m tired and I’m hungry — I’m ragged and I’m dirty, too
|
| You left me tired and I’m hungry — Ragged and I’m dirty, too (See what you do?)
|
| Well, now don’t a-you a-mistreat me
|
| A-just because I’m so young and wild
|
| Don’t forget that you once was a child |
