You gotta give an account 

Just what you'll 

Just-a what you'll do 

If you got a good woman 

An she won't treat you right 

An feed her three times a day 

An wup her a little at night 

You gotta give an account 

Just what you'll 

Just what you'll do 

Now, Mr. Depot agent 

Don't cha make me cry 

Did my baby stop here? 

Did she keep on ridin'? 

You got to give an account 

Just what you'll 

Just a-what you'll do 

Photos 

Now, I want all you people 

To gather around 

My baby doesn't even love me 

Treat me like a hound 

You got to give an account 

Just what you 

Just what you'll do, now 

(harmonica & strings) 

I go'd out buy her Chevrolet 

Still, she wanted a V8 Ford 

She said she wanted something 

Would be easy to hold in the road 

She got to give an account 

Just what she'll 

Just what she'll do 

I wave my hand 

She wouldn't pay me no mind 

Right on my do' 

She nailed up a sign 

But she got to give an account 

Just what you 

Just what she'll do. 

(harmonica & strings to end)
