Stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't you tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be 

Now, put your arms around me 

Like the circle round the sun 

I want ya to love me, mama 

Like my easy rider done 

If you don't believe I love ya 

Look what a fool I've been 

If you don't believe I'm sinkin' 

Look what a hole I'm in 

Stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't ya tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be 

I'm stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't you tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be 

(jug & instrumental) 

The woman I'm lovin' 

She just my heigh-th and size 

She's a married woman 

Come to see me sometimes 

If you don't believe I love you 

Look what a fool I've been 

If you don't believe I'm sinkin' 

Look what a hole I'm in 

I'm stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't you tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be 

I'm stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't you tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be 

(kazoo & instrumental) 

Stealin', stealin', pretty mama 

Don't you tell on me 

I'm stealin' back to my 

Same old used to be.
