Standard (EADGBE)
"Well when I was a young-un they used to teach me to play music like this here..."
(Verse 1)
When I look in your face baby
When I look in your eyes
riff 1
I can tell pretty mama I been wastin' time
'Cause you don't really love me
You just want me for what I am
But you best treat me right, woman
Gonna lose your money man
(Verse 2)
Well when I first met you baby, you was a red light girl
riff 1
But I tried to take you to a better world
But you would not listen
Still you think I am a fool
Well you had it made in the shade, baby
Don't let that tree fall down on you
(Verse 3)
Well I work for the railroad each and every day
riff 1
Well I work real hard tryin' to make my pay
Lord I never tell you what you supposed to do
Girl you had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down on you
Girl you had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down on you
