Oh you know that I can't lay down on your bed

'cause my good woman she might kill me dead

[Verse 4]
    F                                   C
And don't you let my good gal catch you here

Hey don't you let my good gal catch you here

If you do, she might shoot you, cut and stop you too

        F                                         C
The way I've been sleepin' my back and shoulders' tired
        F                                         G
The way I've been sleepin' my back and shoulders' tired

Honey, make it over close behind the door

Make it where your good man'll never go
