Talk to me baby
Tell me what's the matter now
Tell me, baby what's the matter now?
Are you tryin' to quit me, baby
But you don't know how

I've been your slave
Ever since I've been your babe
I've been your slave
Ever since I've been your babe

But before I see you go
I see you in your grave

I'm a good gal
But my love is all wrong

I'm a good gal
But my love is all wrong

I'm a real good gal
But my love is gone
