Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You'd make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby
I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die
Tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why

Well I got a crow I wanna pick on you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You're out there honky tonkin', kickin' up your heels
Leavin' me at home with a hand full of bills
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', gettin' drunk as I can
Maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good man(that's what I plan)

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 'til the day that I die
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why(tell me why)

Well, I've caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you, and I should'a left then
Love you so much, but I still get sore
When you come home a-feedin' for the knob on the door
I don't know, but I've heard say
Ever' little dog is a-gonna have his day
You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget
'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy dog yet

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby
I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die
Tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why
(tell me why)

Thank you
