A
Well, I woke up this morning and I looked out the door.
I can tell that that old milk cow..I can tell the way
she lowed.
DA
Well, if you've seen my milk cow..please ride her on home.
EDAE
I ain't had no milk or butter, since that cow's been gone.
A
Well, I tried to treat you right..day by day.
Get out your little prayer book, get down on your knees
and pray.
D
For you're gonna neeeeed..you're gonna need your loving
A
daddy's help someday.
EDAE
Well, then you're gonna be sorry..for treating me this way.
Chorus:
EA
Well, believe me, don't that sun look good going down?
DA
Well, believe me, don't that sun look good going down?
E
Well, don't that old moon look lonesome?
DAE
when your baby's not around.
A
Well, I tried everything to get along with you.
I'm gonna tell you what I'm going do.
D
I'm gonna quit my crying, I'm gonna leave you alone.
A
If you don't believe I'm leaving, you can count the days
I'm gone.
D
I'm gonna leee...ave...you're gonna need your loving daddy's
A
help someday.
EDA
Well, you're gonna be sorry..you treated me this way.
