[Verse 1]
I wanna talk to you, baby
'Bout a thing you've done
You know I give you plenty of money
To go out and have your fun (Yeah)
But you left me one night (Uh huh)
Didn't come back today (Sure 'nuff)
You done had all the fun you wanna
And throwed my money away

[Chorus]
But baby (Woah, baby)
Baby (Woah, child)
Baby (Woah, baby)
Woah, baby (Woah, yeah)
Now why you treat me that way?

[Verse 2]
Now you know I told you (Yeah)
It's hard for us to get along (Mmmhmm)
You take my money and went throw it away
And you know you'd done wrong
But if you a-had a listened (Yeah)
To my lonesome plead
You'd be at home this evening-a
Laughin', talk with me
[Chorus]
But baby (Woah, baby)
Baby (Woah, child)
Baby (Woah yeah)
Woah, baby (Woah, lord)
Now don't you hear me callin' you?
I know you do (Ooh)

[Verse 3]
My mother told me "Son" (Yeah)
Don't forget to pray
I fell down on my knees
I forgot just what to say, but I says

[Chorus]
Baby (Woah, baby)
Baby (Woah, child)
Baby (Woah, yeah)
Woah baby (Ooh)
Now don't you hear me callin' you? (Oh yeah)

[Outro]
You can't help but hear me (Sure 'nuff, Lightnin')
