Lyrics for Album: The Essential George Jones [Epic/Legacy] [2006]
(Darrell Edwards & George Jones)
George Jones & Ricky Skaggs
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
But tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why.
Well, I got a crow I wanna pick with you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You're runnin' wild kickin' up your heels
A leavin' me home with a handful of bills.
Well, I can't live without you and you know it's true
There's ain't no livin' with you so what'll I do
I'm goin' honky tonkin', 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 help but love you till the day that I die
But tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why.
--- Instrumental ---
Now I don't know, but I've heard 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 should've left then
Now I'm too old to leave you, but I still get sore
When you come home a feelin' for the knob 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 help but love you 'til the day that I die
So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby, why.
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why
Why baby, why baby, why baby, why...
