Babe, we got to have little talk I ought to pack up my things an walk I know a dollar goes hand to hand Before I met you, go from man to man I'd rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log 'Yas, yas' Love you baby but you won't be fair You don't know how to be on the square Have your fun baby if you must Before I'll have a woman, I can't trust I'd rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log What's the use, just like a Georgia mule My friends laughed And they called me a fool Your kisses are as sweet as can be Before I'll let you make a fool out of me I'd rather drink muddy water or Sleep in a hollow log
