But on the Other Hand, Baby

歌詞

You know I'm hooked for you, mama That's why you sling your weight around You know I'm hooked for you, mama That's why you sling your weight around Oh, but as long as your lovin' beats your hoggin' Little girl, I'll never put you down You argue when I leave for work You argue when I get home Everything I try to do for you You always say that I'm wrong I bring you home all my money Except the little I keep for expense And when I get home to you mama, you always tell me "Ray, you ain't got no sense." But on the other hand baby You, I can understand Ah, but when you put your loving arms around me, honey You make me forget about everything I think about the lousy way you treat me You're always raising sin I know that you know that I know That you've got another man Ah, half the time that I'm at home I have to go to a café and eat And when you argue all night long I have to go down to the den and sleep But on the other hand baby Your loving eases all my pain And when you put your loving arms around me, honey You make old Ray forget about everything
