When I look in your face,
I can tell, pretty mama, I can realize
That you don't really love me
You just want me for what I am
But you best treat me right
You're gonna lose your money,
Well, when I met you, babe
You was a red light girl,
but I tried to take you to a better world
But you would not listen,
you just thought I was your fool
Well, you know you had it
Don't let that tree fall down on you
I'll you, silly fool, I'll go down and go
Well, I works for the railroad
You know I worked real hard
Girl, you had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down on you
When I look in your face, baby,
I can tell, mama, yes I realize
That you don't really love me
Still you say I am your fool
You know you had it made in shame
Don't let that tree fall down on you
You had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down on you
the the the the the the the
