Lyrics

Well, I woke up this morning And I looked out the door I can tell that old milk cow By the way she lowed Hold it, fellows--that don't move me Let's get real, real gone for a change Well, I woke up this morning And I looked out the door I can tell that that old milk cow I can tell the way she lowed Well, if you've seen my milk cow Please, ride her on home I ain't had no milk or butter Since that cow's been gone Well, I tried to treat you right Day by day Get out your little prayer book Get down on your knees and pray For you're gonna need You're gonna need Your loving daddy's help someday Well, then you're gonna be sorry For treating me this way Well, believe me, don't that sun Look good going down? Well, believe me, don't that sun Look good going down? Well, don't that old moon look lonesome When your baby's not around Well, I tried everything to Get along with you I'm gonna tell you what I'm going do I'm gonna quit my crying I'm gonna leave you alone If you don't believe I'm leaving You can count the days I'm gone I'm gonna leave You're gonna need your Loving daddy's help someday Well, you're gonna be sorry You treated me this way
