Lyrics:

Don't take a married woman, a-honey babe, to ever be your friend
She will spend all your money, take the same man back again

You know I started to write a letter but a telegram will make it near
I don't get no answer, this black boy is goin' himself

I give you all of my money, a-little girl, and all my time
You messed up another man, don't want to pay poor me no mind

I don't care to where you go, I don't care how long you stay
You know, good kind treatment will bring you home someday
