Lyric Why Baby Why (v2)

(George Jones - Darrell Edwards)
George Jones & Gene Pitney

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
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why.

Well, I ve got a crow I want to pick with you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You re running wild a kickin up your heels
A leavin me home with a handful of bills.

I 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 tight as I can
And maybe by then you ll preciate a good man.

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
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why.

--- Instrumental ---

Now I don t know but I ve heard you say
That every little dog s a gonna have his day
You better pay attention don t you dare forget
Cause I m just a little bitty puppy yet.

Well, I caught you honky tonkin with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you but I shoulda left then
Now, I m too old to leave you but I still get sore
When you come home, my baby, for a knock on the door.

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
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why...
