Lookie here hon what have I done? Why we can not agree? Cause you're the only man - in this world That ever made a fool of me You beat me and you blacked my eyes Well didn't I try to apologize? So I'm going away... I ain't gonna ask you to stay ...Well listen while I say (what's that?) Fare thee well, because I'm going... Another mama's waiting now to take your home I'm gonna get me a man that won't treat me cold Well I see right now I got to get you told Woman when I met you you was ragged as a sheet And didn't even have a decent place to sleep I took you in and fed you cause you was hungry as a hound Put clothes on your back and took your feet off the ground Now you're all dressed up - stomach full And got the nerve to try to hand me some bull That's the way they are - soon as you get 'em out the barrel (??back?) They're ready to find some other man and (send them for bear???beer?) You outta never forget me woman For letting me (smack your wrist??ribs?) 'Cause I'm the one that gave you a place to park your hips I bought you them clothes - I bought you that wig (Shhhhh!) Gee - the devil! You know I did Well all that talk ain't gonna keep me home So fare thee well brother because I'm goin' You say you got your trunk all packed I hope you leave and never come back All that talk ain't going to keep me home So fare thee well brother - because I'm gone Ashes to ashes - sand to sand The neighbors told me you had a back door man I said all your talk ain't gonna keep me home So fare thee well brother because I'm gone (I mean) well (Together:) Fare thee well brother because I'm gone
