Go and Sow

Why you have to leave me? Hmm hmm Don’t you have no pity? Hmm hmm Ya left me in the streets of the lonely Ooh ooh Now, I can’t be free like everybody Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Oooh Why is it so hard to let you know What’s going on in my mind — Left behind, left behind, left behind But I don’t mind as long as I unwind Now, you reap what you sow I told you so… Ooh ooh Where have you been? Where have you been? You doing things right behind my back again I told you so You’re gonna pay Go with the flow I wanted to stay Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Ooh ooh Ya reap what you sow Hmm Now, you know Hmm Why you have to leave? Where did you leave? Oh oh, no oh Why you left me with a great sense of grief? I don’t know I grieve for your absence on my pitiful sleeve Dead inside and on my knees, praying for relief Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Oooh Why is it so hard to let you know What’s going on in my mind — Left behind, left behind, left behind But I don’t mind as long as I unwind Now, you reap what you sow I told you so… Ooh ooh Where have you been? Where have you been? You doing things right behind my back again I told you so You’re gonna pay Go with the flow I wanted to stay Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Ooh ooh Ya reap what you sow Hmm Now, you know Hmm You sow what you reap When ya should reap what you sow Now, we silently weep Where did you go? Left with “I dunno” Why you have to go? Oooh Why is it so hard to let you know What’s going on in my mind — Left behind, left behind, left behind But I don’t mind as long as I unwind Now, you reap what you sow I told you so… Ooh ooh Where have you been? Where have you been? You doing things right behind my back again I told you so You’re gonna pay Go with the flow I wanted to stay Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Ooh ooh Ya reap what you sow Hmm Now, you know Hmm Reap what you sow I hope that you know That you lost a friend From beginning to the end Why you have to go? Oooh Why is it so hard to let you know What’s going on in my mind — Left behind, left behind, left behind But I don’t mind as long as I unwind Now, you reap what you sow I told you so… Ooh ooh Where have you been? Where have you been? You doing things right behind my back again I told you so You’re gonna pay Go with the flow I wanted to stay Ooh ooh Why you have to go? Ooh ooh Ya reap what you sow Hmm Now, you know Hmm Now, you know From beginning to the end You reap what sow So, we can all have a mend Make amends For the wrong we’ve done It ends Right here, so get gone I’ll be moving on, hun Yeah, ya jumped the gun Hope you can comprehend You’re gonna reap till the end
