Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My man don't love me
Treats me oh, so mean
My man, he don't love me
Treats me awful mean
He's the lowest man
That I've ever seen
[Verse 2]
He wears high draped pants
Stripes are really yellow
He wears high draped pants
Stripes are really yellow
But when he starts in to love me
He's so fine and mellow
[Verse 3]
Love will make you drink and gamble
Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you drink and gamble
Make you stay out all night long
Love will make you do things
That you know is wrong
[Verse 4]
But if you treat me right, baby
I'll stay home every day
Just treat me right, baby
I'll stay home night and day
But you're so mean to me, baby
I know you're gonna drive me away
[Verse 5]
Love is just like a faucet
It turns off and on
Love is just like a faucet
It turns off and on
[Verse 6]
Sometimes when you think it's on, baby
It has turned off and gone
