"Why Baby Why" lyrics - THE FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS

Tell me why baby why baby, why baby why
Make me cry baby
I can't live without ya till the day that I die
Tell me why baby why baby, why baby why.

Well I got a crow I wanna pick with you
Just like before when the feathers flew
You're runnin' wild kickin' up your heels
Leavin' me home with a handful of bills.

It's too late to leave you and I know it's true
There ain't no living with you so what'll I do?
I'm going honky tonkin', get as tight as I can
And maybe by then you'll appreciate a good man.

Tell me why baby why baby, why baby why
Make me cry baby
I can't live without ya till the day that I die
Tell me why baby why baby, why baby why.

Well I don't know but I've heard say
Every little dog's gonna have his day
You better listen to me, don't ya dare forget
Cause you ain't just a little bitty puppy yet.

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you way back then
It's too late to leave you but I still get sore
When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door.

Tell me why baby why baby, why baby why
Make me cry baby
I can't live without ya till the day that I die
