Oh Baby You Know I'M Hurting

Oh baby, you know I'm hurting and you treat me so unkind! Oh baby, you know I'm hurting and you treat me so unkind! Stop your hustling baby, you making me want to cry! I go down to Louisiana and buy you a diamond ring, I said I go down to Louisiana and buy a big old diamond ring! Yet, you still treat me so unkind! Feeling like I'm going to die, and you run off with another guy! How could you treat me so, unkind? See me baby, I am about to cry! Oh baby you know I'm hurting and you're nowhere in sight! I said you know I'm hurting, and you're nowhere in sight! Stop that hustling baby girl, 'cause you know I'm about to cry! There you go baby running off with another guy, stay out all night, don't come home till dawn! See me sleeping, all alone and out of mind. Don't make me cry baby, don't you make me cry. I said don't make me cry baby, don't you make me cry! I said baby if you make me cry, I swear I'm going to leave you alone. See me go, catch the first train out of town! See you baby girl, I'm going to leave, goodbye! Goodbye baby I wish you all the luck! I said goodbye baby I hope you the best of luck; because you're going to need it, because I'm not going to be around!
