Why Baby Why Songtext

von Roger McGuinn

Well I got a crow I wanna pick with you
Just like before when the feathers flew
You're running wild kicking up your heels
Leavin' me home with a handful of bills

It's too late to leave you and I know it's true
There ain't no living with you so what'll I do
I'm going honky tonkin' get as tight as I can
And maybe by then you'll appreciate a good man

Well I don't know but I've heard say
Every little dog's gonna have his day
You better listen to me don't you dare forget
Cause you ain't but just a little bitty puppy yet

Tell me why baby why baby
Why baby why you make me
Cry baby cry baby
Cry baby cry
I can't live without you till the day that I die
Tell me why baby why baby
Why baby why

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you way back then
It's too late to leave you but I still get sore
When ya come home a feelin' for the knob on the door
