I just don't like this kind of livin' I'm tired of doin' all the givin'. I give my all and sit and yearn and get no lovin' in return. And I just don't like this kind of livin'.
I'll be your baby. And I don't mean maybe. If you'll be a baby to me. . I'll be your darling. And there'll be no quarrelin'. If you'll be a baby to me.
All you want to do is sit around and pout. And now I got enough and so I'm getting out. I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now. I'm a long gone daddy, I don't need you anyhow.
Oh, I can't get you off of my mind. When I try I'm just wasting my time. . Lord, I've tried and I've tried. And all night long I've cried. But I can't get you off of my mind.
I've tried and tried to run and hide. To find a life that's new. But wherever I go I always know. . I can't escape from you. . A jug of wine to numb my mind.
Everybody says, oh, you let me down. That I should be ashamed to take you 'round. What makes no difference, what you used to do. Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.
