I Can't Understand

Love you, baby, with all my might

God knows I've tried to treat you right

Beg you, baby, let me be your slave

But please don't send me to an early grave

Well, I can't understand

Why did you let me go?

I've done all I could

I can't do much more

Ain't nothing in this world I wouldn't do for you

If you want my life, you can have that too

Please use my blood to mark my grave

Let the whole world know I died your slave

Well, I can't understand

Why did you let me go?

I've done all I could

I can't do much more

Thought you loved me, I changed my life

Wanted you to be my woman and wife

Now bloodshot tears have blinded my eyes

I'm too weak to live, I'm too strong to die

Well, I can't understand

Why did you let me go?

I've done all I could

I can't do much more

I've done all I could

I can't do much more

I've done all I could

I can't do no more

Can't understand

You done me wrong, baby

Lord, have mercy
