No no no no no no no-o-o-oo-oh
Makes me cry to see you go-o-o-oo-oh
No no no no no no no-o-o-oo-oh
Makes me cry to see you go-o-o-oo-oh

Left me here to cry alone
With a bottle of juice & a pork chop bone
No no no no no no no-o-o-oo-oh
Makes me cry to see you go-o-o-oo-oh

Gave my money all to you-oo
Took my watch and pawned it too-oo
Two gold teeth and one glass eye
Didnt have the nerve to say goodbye

Boppa dooayyydoo
Boppa dooayyydoo

You treat me funky baby
And some day youll have to pay
I aint such a fool that I would let you go
And treat me this way
No no no no no no no-o-o-oh
I aint going to let you go-o-o-oo-oh
No no no no no no no-o-o-oh
I aint going to let you go-oh-o-oo-oh
