LYRICS :
MY MAN HE DON'T LOVE ME
HE TREATS ME OH SO MEAN
MY MAN HE DON'T LOVE ME
HE TREATS ME OH SO MEAN
HE'S THE MEANEST MAN THAT I'VE EVER SEEN

MY BABY WEARS HIGH PEG PANTS
STRIPES ARE REALLY YELLOW
BABY WEARS HIGH PEG PANTS
STRIPES ARE REALLY YELLOW
BUT WHEN HE STARTS IN TO LOVE ME
HE'S SO FINE AND MELLOW.

LOVE WILL MAKE YOU DRINK AND GAMBLE
MAKE 'S YOU STAY OUT ALL NIGHT LONG
LOVE WILL MAKE YOU DRINK AND GAMBLE
MAKE'S YOU STAY OUT ALL NIGHT LONG'
LOVE WILL MAKE YOU DO THINGS
THAT YOU KNOW IS WRONG

DO RIGHT BABY IF YOU STAY HOME EVERY DAY
I 'LL DO RIGHT BABY IF YOU STAY HOME EVERY DAY
YOU'RE SO MEAN AND EVIL
I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA DRIVE ME AWAY

WHY DID HE LEAVE ME
WHY DID HE REALLY HAVE TO GO
WHY DID HE LEAVE ME
WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO
WENT OFF AND LEFT ME
BABY I LOVED HIM SO

I'LL BE A GOOD WIFE TO YOU
IF IT MEANS ANYTHING TO YOU
I'LL STAY HOME EVERY NIGHT
HUG AND LOVE AND KISS YOU EV'RY NIGHT
AND ONE OF THESE DAYS
IF YOU'RE GOOD TO ME HONEY
ONE OF THESE DAYS IF GOD IS GOOD TO ME
I''L BRING YOU A LITLLE BUNNY

COME BACK TO ME BABY
TRY ME ONE MORE TIME
CAUSE WITHOUT YOUR LOVING I SWEAR
I'M GONNA LOSE MY MIND...YEAH
