Song: 

Lord, you done told ev'rybody 

Baby, in your neighborhood 

 

Lord, you done told ev'rybody 

Baby, in yo' neighborhood 

 

You done told ev'rybody 

In yo' neighborhood 

 

You was a dirty mistreater 

Lord, you didn't mean me no good 

 

'Nice trick' 

 

I wouldn't hate it so badly 

But you broke my diamond ring 

 

Lord, I wouldn't hate it so bad, babe 

But you broke my diamond ring 

 

I wouldn't hate it so bad 

But you broke, broke my 

Diamond ring 

Lord, broke my diamond ring 

 

Lord, I'm goin' to the sargeant 

I'm 'onna call the chief police 

 

I'm goin' to the sargeant 

I'm 'onna call that chief police 

 

Lord, I'm goin' to the sargeant 

I'm 'onna call the chief police 

 

Lord, my baby done quit me 

I can't see no peace 

 

Lord my, my baby done quit me 

I can't see no peace 

No 

Lord, Lord 

I can't see 

I can't see no peace 

 

I looked down the road, baby 

Just as fer as I could see 

 

I looked down the road 

Just as fer as I could see 

 

Lord, a gang a-women 

They was hollerin' 

Rryin' after me 

 

Lord, Lord 

Hollerin', after 

After me 

Lord, an holler 

After me 

Lord, they was hollerin' 

Lord, they was hollerin' 

Hollerin' after me 

 

Yes, I knowed 

Somethin' goin' on wrong 

I know, baby 

Somethin' is goin' on wrong 

 

I know my baby woke up, Lord 

She found her mister's roam 

 

That the reason that so 

So many people 

Strollin' way 

Way from home 

 

Reason so many people 

Strollin' away 

From home 

Lord, Lord 

 

Lord, Lord.
