[Verse 1]
I don't care how long you're gone
I don't care how long you stay
But good kind treatment
Gon' bring you home some day

[Chorus]
But someday, baby
You ain't gon' trouble poor me anymore

[Verse 2]
You just keep on bettin'
That the dice won't pass
Well you know darlin'
You are living too fast

[Chorus]
But someday, baby
You ain't gon' trouble poor me anymore

[Verse 3]
I'm gon' tell everybody
In your neighbourhood
That you're the sweet little girl
But you don't do me no good
[Chorus]
But someday, baby
You ain't gon' trouble poor me anymore

[Verse 4]
Oh well, I know you're leaving
Well, you call that gone
Well, without love
You can't stay long

[Chorus]
But someday, baby
You ain't gon' trouble poor me anymore

[Verse 5]
Well, goodbye, baby
Come on, shake my hand
I don't want no man
You can have a man

[Chorus]
But someday, baby
You ain't gon' trouble poor me anymore
