INTRO
Ha, ha-ha-ha, what's ta [sic] matter with my man today?
Ha, ha-ha-ha, what's ta matter with my man today?
I ask him if he love me, Lord, and he walked away
Penitentia', penritentia', ah-ha, it's gon' be my home
Penritentia', penritentia', ah-ha, it's gon' be my home
Because my man, he mistreated me, Lord, he have done me wrong
The man that I'm a-lovin', Lord, is gon' get me killed
The man that I'm a-lovin', Lord, is gon' get me killed
Because love is a proposition, it's got many a poor girls killed
I love you, Lennon, Lord, and you won't behave
I love you, Lennon, Lord, and you won't behave
You gonna keep on a-prowlin', you gon' wake up in your grave
