You know my baby told me

not so very long ago

He said I don't love you baby

And you got to you got to let me go

And that was too much too much for me

That's why I walked the back streets and cry

You know it hurts me so bad

To hear my baby say

Hear my baby say goodbye

He said another reason

that makes me wanna leave

You ain't got enough of nothin' to keep me

keep me Incomprehensible

That was too much oh too much for me

That's why I walked the back streets

the back street and cry

Oh yeah

Oh it hurts me it hurts me so bad

Oh to hear my baby

Hear my baby say goodbye

He said You're a good woman Etta

To treat me like you do

He said You ain't done nothin' to me

I just can't stay here with you

I stood and watch my baby

as far as I could see

You know the men started runnin'

After waiving waiving goodbye to me

That was too much too much for me

That's why I walked the back streets and cry

Oh yeah

You know it hurts me it hurts me so bad

Oh to hear my baby

Hear my baby say goodbye

Hear and say goodbye

You know it hurts me so bad

To hear my baby say goodbye

That's why I walked the back streets

The back streets and cry

Oh I said it hurts me it hurts me so bad

Hear my baby say so long

Oh it hurts me hurts me hurts me so bad

Hear my baby say hear my baby say goodbye

Oh baby oh oh it hurts me so bad

Hear my baby say goodbye

That why I walked the back streets

That why I walked the back streets and cry

Oh that why I walked the back streets and cry

Cry cry
