Lyrics

Twelve o'clock at night, you walk out of door You told me, baby, you was going to the drugstore But-a in my mind i knew you was lyin' The drugstore close at a quarter to nine I said, saw you kissin' Willie across the fence I heard you tellin' Willie i don't have no sense The way you been actin' is such a drag You done put me in a trick-bag When-a i come home, you start an argument Just to keep me from askin' where my food done went Walk in the front door, i hear the back door slam Peep out my window, somebody's takin' on a lam But i saw you kissin' Willie across the fence I heard you tellin' Willie i don't have no sense The way you been actin' is such a drag You done put me in a trick-bag We had a fight, then you got mad Got on the telephone, call your mom and dad They came a-runnin down with bats in their hands "Don't you hit her no more, you understand?" But i saw her kissin' Willie across the fence I heard her tellin' Willie i don't have no sense The way she's been actin' is such a drag You done put me in a trick-bag You git me wrong, but i know i'm right It wasn't i that started the fight "She's my daughter and i'm her paw "You ain't nothing, a-but a son-in-law" But i saw her kissin' Willie across the fence I heard her tellin' Willie i don't have no sense The way she's been actin' is such a drag You done put me in a trick-bag
