I can't forget the day, baby, you walked away
Can't forget the day, mama, you walked way
Can't forget the day you walked away
When you come back next time you're here to stay
And that's the reason I'm telling you, mama, you losin' out
Well it was early one morning you come dragging home
Yeah it was early one morning you come dragging home
It was early morning, dragging home
Said "Forgive me, Daddy, for I done wrong"
That's the reason I'm telling you, mama, you losin' out
Well you left that time and you ain't gonna leave no more
Yeah you left that time and you ain't gonna leave no more
Well you left that time, ain't gonna leave no more
I'm putting a lock on my back door
And that's the reason I'm telling you, mama, you losin' out
Well I followed my baby to a barren place
Yeah I followed my baby to a barren place
Well I followed my baby to a barren place
Can't get another rider to take your place
That's the reason I'm telling you, mama, you losin' out
Y'oughta heard me crying, baby, you're all I crave
Y'oughta heard me crying, mama, you're all I crave
Y'oughta heard me crying, you're all I crave
While I wrote your will upon your grave
That's the reason I'm telling you, mama, you losin' out
Yeah that's the reason I'm telling you, mama you losin' out
Yeah that's the reason I'm telling you, mama you losin' out
