It's a cryin' pity

Lowdown, dirty shame

It's a cryin' pity

Lowdown, dirty shame

Crazy 'bout a no-good woman

'Fraid to call her name

Now, where were you, babe

When I knocked upon yo' do'?

'Out late last night'

Where were you, babe

When I knocked upon yo' do'?

You had a nerve, tell po' Tommy

That you couldn't use me no mo'

But that's alright, babe

Got to reap what you sow

That's alright, babe

Got to reap just what you sow

But don't forget that night

An I knocked upon yo' do'

Now, I done some-un' last winter

No expect to do it no mo'

Mmm-mmm-mmm

Done some-un' last winter

No expect to do it no mo'

Quit the best woman I had

An I drove her from my do'

But forgive me, baby

Won't do wrong no mo'

Forgive me, baby

Swear I won't do wrong, no mo'

You can get all my lovin'

But you gotta let that blind man go

Now, I love you, baby

I don't see whys I should

Now, I love you, baby

Don't see whys I should

'Cause you g'won wit' the man

That live right in my neighbor'h.
