I been tryin', my baby.
Just to see will she make a change.
I been tryin', my baby.
To see will she make a change.
She don't do a doggone thing.
Go to the movies all the time.

I said, 'Baby, baby', Lord, Lord, Lord.
'You gonna make my hair turn gray.'
I said, 'Baby, baby, gonna.
You gonna make my hair turn gray.
'You're so doggone young an beautiful, baby.'
'Lord, I work for you both night an day'.

(Guitar solo)

Baby, baby, baby.
Don't leave your daddy, now.
Um-um-um-um-um.
Um-um-um-um-um-um-um-um.
Um-um-um-um-um-um-um.
Um-um-um.
Um-um-mm-mm.
