Every night about this time
I go to sleep to keep from cryin'
Every night about this time
I go to sleep to keep from cryin'

'Cause my babe
She always runnin' 'round

Oh, can't you see what's wrong with me
I cried and I cried, 'cause I'm not satisfied, oh
Oh, can't you see what's wrong with me

Yes, I'm afraid
I will have to let my baby be

Yes, love is a thing that money can't buy
If you don't have no one to love you
You might as well cool off and die, oh
Oh, can't you see what you've done to me

Yes, I'm afraid
I'm gonna have to let my baby be
