Alimony Blues

My baby left me

Sitting on a courtroom seat

My baby left me

Sitting on a courtroom seat

Now the judge say I got to pay her

One hundred bucks a week

Judge, oh judge

Where can your justice be?

Judge, oh judge

Where can your justice be?

That woman is getting every doggone

Thing I had but me

She's suing me for cruelty

Cause I hit her once or twice

One night I tried to choke her

She said I wasn't nice

I used to love that woman

Till the strain was killing me

Now her lawyer's charging

Incompatibility

Well, she won the case

Now she's got a first degree

I got those alimony blues

On the day she set me free
