I'd rather see my coffin come rollin' in my door
Than to hear my baby tell me she don't want me no more
REFRAIN: Now, ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
Baby, you know I'd rather be dead
Than to know somebody's been sleepin' in my bed
REFRAIN: Now, ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
I'm just like a groundhog goin' back to his hole
The woman I love can satisfy my soul
REFRAIN: Now, ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
I'd rather be in the graveyard by myself
Than hear you tell me you want somebody else
REFRAIN: Now, ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
Another thing, baby, I want you to understand
Everyone looks like me, ain't no monkeyman
REFRAIN: Ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
Been five long years, five long years today
Since I found my baby had me away
REFRAIN: Ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
REFRAIN: Ain't you sorry, mama? Ain't you sorry, mama?
Ain't you sorry, mama, a-you mistreated poor me?
