And I'm tellin' you all the truth oh take it for me
I done seen better days but I'm puttin' up with these
I done seen better days but I'm puttin' up with these
I been havin' a much better time with these girls Now I'm so hard to please
'Cos I was born in the country she thinks I'm easy to rule
'Cos I was born in the country she thinks I'm easy to rule
She try to hitch me to her wagon She want to drive me like a mule
You know I bought some groceries and I paid the rent
Yes I buy some groceries and I pay the rent
She try to make me wash her clothes but I got good common sense
I said if you don't want me why don't you tell me so
You know if you don't want me why don't you tell me so
Because it ain't like a man that ain't got nowhere to go
I've been givin' you sugar for sugar let you get salt for salt
I'll give you sugar for sugar let you get salt for salt
And if you can't get 'long with me well it's your own fault
How you wanted me to love you and you treat me mean
How do you want me to love you you keep on treatin' me mean
You're my daily thought and my nightly dream
Sometimes I think that you too sweet to die
Sometimes I think that you too sweet to die
And another time I think you oughta be buried alive
