Ah baby, you know that I love you,
That's the reason you treat me so unkind
Lord, you know I love you, that's the reason you treat me so unkind
I'm gon' get me a good girl, just to worry you off my mind
I'm going down in Louisiana, baby, just behind the sun
Lord, I'm goin' down in Louisiana, baby, just behind the sun
And when I come back, pretty mama, all my good work will be done
Baby, you treat me so unkind, you always gets me feeling blue
Baby, you treat me so unkind, it always gets me feeling blue
Lord, I sometime wonder, what in the world you tryin' to do
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
Lord, Lord, baby, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord
I have been your man, now you want me to be your dog
Baby, I'm leaving in the morning,
And I'm leavin' on the southbound train
I'm leaving in the morning, baby, on the southbound train
And when I come back, baby, I don't want you to call my name
