My woman done quit me, I can't see no peace
She keep me worried, bothered all the time
'Cause she keep me worried, I'm bothered all the time
Says, I love you woman, love your husband, too,

"Don't let no woman be the death of you."
'Cause she didn't all ow me to stay out all night long
Because she didn't allow me to stay out all night long

Goin' to pack my suitcase, hunt some other town
