Tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
I can't help but love you till the day that I die
But tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, whyWell, I got a crow I wanna pick with you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You're running wild a kickin' up your heels
You're leavin' me home with a handful of billsI can't live without you and you know it's true
But there's no livin' with you, so what'll I do
I'm goin' honky tonkin' get as tight as I can
And maybe by then you'll preciate a good manTell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
I can't help but love you till the day that I die
But tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, whyWell, I don't know but I've heard you say
That every little dog is gonna have his day
You better pay attention don't you dare forget
'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yetI caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The time to do was to leave you, but I should have left then
Now, I'm too old to leave you but I still get sore
When you come home a feelin' for the knob on the doorTell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
I can't help but love you till the day that I die
But tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, whyTell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, why
