We can't make it baby 
We can't last another year 
We can't make it baby 
We can't last another year 
Well I try to treat you kind baby 
But it seems like you got the wrong idea 
I give you all my money baby 
To buy those real fine clothes 
I give you all my money baby 
To buy those real fine clothes 
I bought you a home and everything baby 
Now you're trying to put old me outdoors 
When I first met you baby 
You had to do it out in the street 
When I first met you baby 
You had to do it out in the street 
I put clothes on your back, baby 
I put shoes on your feet 
It seems right to me baby 
Since you got your feet up off the ground 
It seems right to me baby 
Since you got your feet up off the ground 
You're a real big-shot woman now 
You don't want old me around
