Please Make Up Your Mind

When I agree with you, baby, it makes you mad

And when I don't, it makes you sad

When I argue back, you pack and leave

And when I don't, you pout and grieve

There just ain't nobody knows what I go through

Will you please make up your mind what you want me to do?

You say get out and I'd better stay gone

Then you have a big policeman drag me back home

You holler good and loud, put him in the calaboose

Then you cry and ask the judge, won't you please turn him loose?

The good Lord only knows what I go through

Will you please make up your mind what you want me to do?

My life with you has been one hard knock

Lord, my heads looks like an old chop-block

And I'll tell you right now, honey, that ain't all

You done kicked me till I feel like a used football

There just ain't nobody knows what I go through

Will you please make up your mind what you want me to do?

You knock me down, and then you pick me up

Honey, do you have to love so doggone rough?

I wish to my soul you'd slow down the pace

'Cause I'll tell you right now, the hide's gettin' scarce

There just ain't nobody knows what I go through

Will you please make up your mind what you want me to do?

Why, when I married you, you were such a meek little thing

But honey, among tigers you'd be queen

If a poor little rabbit had you on his side

Every hound in the country would crawl off and hide

There just ain't nobody knows what I go through

Would you please make up your mind

What in the confound cat hair do you want me to do?
