Well I'm drifting and drifting

Like a ship out on the sea

And I've been drifting and drifting baby

Drifting just like a ship out on the sea

And oh you know

I ain't got nobody now baby

In this great big world

To care for me

If my baby would only

Take me back again

I wish my my my my my baby

Would stop fooling around

And take me back again

Well you know

You know I messed around out here

Now baby yeah let me tell you

I don't even have no friend

I gave you all of my money baby

Tell me what more can I do

Lord after I gave you

All of my money baby

Pray tell me what more can I do

Yeah I know you may be a

Good little girl sometimes now baby

But I'm standing here to tell you

I know you'll never be true

And that is why

That is why I got to say

Bye bye baby yeah

Bye bye baby

Lord bye bye bye

Bye bye bye baby

Baby bye bye

Oh Lord I know

I know it's too late to worry

Lord too late to cry

Oh yeah cry
