Don't mistreat yo' woman

When you know you're doin' wrong, yourself

Don't mistreat yo' woman

When you know you're doin' wrong, yourself

She will try to make a fool outta you

Go wild about somebody else

Now, once had a good woman

But you know I didn't treat her right

Now, once had a good woman

But you know I didn't treat her right

An now she's gone an left me

I have to sleep by myself at night

Now, if you got a good woman

You better always treat her right

Now if you got a good woman

You better always treat her right

Because you know you'll miss her

On some rainy night

'Play that thing'

(slide guitar)

Now, if I ever get another good woman

I'm gon' know how to treat her right

Now, if I ever get another good woman

I'm gon' know how to treat her right

Because you know it's too lonesome

To sleep by yo'self at night.
