So many cold mornin's, you drove me from your door.
So many cold mornin's, you drove me from your door.
I told my best friend, that you don't want me no more.
When you got a good livin', don't trust no woman to be your friend.
When you got a good livin', don't trust no woman to be your friend.
You might as well to lose your head, and jump in the lion's den.
When I try to be good, my baby treats me like a dog.
When I try to be good, my baby treats me like a dog.
I buy silk for her bed, and she sleeps in a hollow log.
I done got it in my mind, that I just can't understand.
I done got it in my mind, that I just can't understand.
I woman don't want a do-right husband, she wants a monkey man.
So many cold mornin's, you drove me from your door.
I told my best friend, that you don't want me no more.
When you got a good livin', don't trust no woman to be your friend.
When you got a good livin', don't trust no woman to be your friend.
You might as well to lose your head, and jump in the lion's den.
When I try to be good, my baby treats me like a dog.
When I try to be good, my baby treats me like a dog.
I buy silk for her bed, and she sleeps in a hollow log.
I done got it in my mind, that I just can't understand.
I done got it in my mind, that I just can't understand.
I woman don't want a do-right husband, she wants a monkey man.
