Well, I work hard everyday Come home straight with my pay My baby either drink it up Or she threw it all away I'm gonna quit my baby If she don't stop cheatin' and lyin' Well, I would rather be alone Than to be worried out of my mind Well, I give her all of my money I think I'm being kind She buy a quart of bad whiskey And the rest is beer and wine Well, a few nights ago I had to work kind-a late Somebody broke out of my house Just like he was Superman's mate Well, four o'clock in the morning, when I staggered in the block The little moonshine joint and the rest just begin to rock I sneaked inside to get a better view I caught my baby doin' the mambo too
