Lyrics

You know I don't wanna leave you, darling
I want to allow you another break
I don't wanna leave you, baby
I want to allow you one more break
Lord, I just wanna see
What kind of real good girl you make
People, people, people you don't know my mind
People, people, people you don't know my mind
I've got the blues, about somebody
A little girl, that I left behind
How can I do
When you won't do right yourself?
How can I do right
When you won't do right yourself?
It's true that I'm loving you, baby
But you're wasting your time, with someone else
Now, you may go to the country
A some far away place
You're about to get lucky, baby
Most in your place
You're gonna need my help, baby
You're gonna need my help one day
And won't you, please, quit your selling
Little girl, stop your evil way
