Don't Treat That Man the Way You Treat Me Songtext

von Lightnin' Hopkins

When you and your man get so you can't get along
You come for Lightnin' singing this song
When you and your man get so you can't get along
You come to poor Lightnin' singing your song

You be telling me about your troubles
Baby your troubles ain't gonna last that long
You better be careful and don't treat that man
The dirty way like you treated me
You better be careful and don't treat that man
The dirty way like you treated me

One day someone's gonna do you
The same way and you will see

You and dat daddy must be
Poor mama's bad luck child
You and dat daddy must be
Poor mother's bad luck child

'Cause and you know the more I do to please a woman
That's the worst of luck I have
