Now you told me that you love me baby, and you told me a lie.

But today you quit me - make up your mind or die.

So get yo'self together, 'cause I ain't goin' stand no more doggin' around.

I know you've got somebody else, cause the talk 's all over town.



Babe I'm gettin' awful tired, of sleepin' by myself.

If you don't want my lovin', I'll dish it out to somebody else.

I got to git myself together, cause I'm tired of sleepin' by myself.

If you don't want my lovin' baby, I'll just shove it out there to somebody else.



Now you cause me to drink and gamble, and stay out all night long. 

You cause me to search in places lookin' for you where I don't belong.

I've got to get myself together, I've got to get you off my mind.

It's a sin the way I love you, and I've got to get you off my mind.
