Early one morning I found myself crying
But what for I’m no longer quite sure
‘Cause my baby,
He lay by me
Forever more
My husband slept sound while I was creepin’
Out the door to my lover’s arms
But still my baby,
He lay by me
Forever more
I came home stinkin’ of pot and whiskey
Though the law said not to drive
But still my baby,
He lay by me
Forever more
My cheatin’ heart, it gives me trouble
Though my man, no he doesn’t see
That his lady
She is crying
Forever more
Early this morning, I found myself crying
But what for? I guess now I’m quite sure
It’s ’cause my baby,
He lay by me
Forever more
It’s ’cause my baby,
He lay by me
Forever more
