[Ebm] [Bbm] The other day a woman stopped me, [Ebm] she said, Daddy, let me talk to you.
[Bbm] She said, now listen, I ain't begging.
[Db] I'm just lonesome [Bbm] and I'm blue.
[Ebm] Once I had a good man, but I didn't know how to act.
[Bbm] By the time I learned my lesson, my good man wouldn't take me back.
[Ebm] She cried that was too much for me.
That's why I walked the back street [Bbm] and cried.
[Gb] But it hurt me so bad, yeah.
[F] Yeah, that the man I miss, [Ebm] he'll say [Bbm] goodbye.
[F] I said, rap on, baby.
[Bbm] I sent a friend to talk for me.
[Ebm] And she said I did the best I could.
[Bbm] I lied like a dog for you.
[Db] I just couldn't do you no [Bbm] good.
[Ebm] That's why I hit the back street then.
Just as drunk as I could be, [Bbm] the man I had missed you.
He passed and didn't look back at me.

That's why I walked the back street [Bbm] and cried.
Oh, [Gb] it hurt me so bad, it hurt me so bad.

While you stood there and grinned.
[Bbm] [Db] Now the police [Bbm] can't help you, little girl.
[Ab] Cause [Bbm] they can't read me in.
