I don't know why
I love you like I do
But I do, Lord I do
I don't know why
You treat me like you do
But you do, Lord you do

You hurt me, over and over
Lord you do me anyway you please
But no matter
How you treat me, woman
Lord I just can't seem to leave

I don't know
What you're using on me
Baby, but it's good
Ooh, it's real good
I know I would sure leave you woman
Oh, if I could, I surely would, woo

I try my best
To make you happy
Lord, you don't appreciate nothing I do
Woman you won't do a thing I ask you baby
But I still try to do everything for you, oh
Oh, I don't know why
I have to cry
But I'll understand
Bye, bye and bye

I don't know why
I love you like I do
But I do, Lord I, I do
Ooh I don't know why
I love you like I do
Oh, but I do, Lord I, I do

Ooh, somebody tell me why
Oh, I don't know why
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't
I don't know why
I have to cry
