Lyrics
Four in the morning
And the water is pourin' down
Stove don't work
And my baby has just left town
I'm lyin' on my back
'Cause there just ain't nothin' to drink
Empty bottles on the floor
And dirty dishes in the sink
Nothin' to drink
And the sun ain't gonna shine
I left my baby
'Cause she just wouldn't stop lying
Well, I saw my baby
And she took back all that she said
It don't make no difference, now
'Cause I shot them both in bed
Jimmy Joe with legs and knees
All bandaged up
Came askin' for some money
And all I had was a buck
Four in the morning
And the water is pourin' down
Stove don't work
And my baby has just left town
I'm watchin' a cockroach
Crawlin' in an old bean can
He says, "Now, when you're baby's left you
I bet it's tough to be a man, yeah, a man"
Four in the morning
And the water is pourin' down
