You can misread me baby,
but you can't when I go home.
You can misread me, baby
But you can't when I'm gone
I got somebody there
She'll make you leave me alone
I don't give you all my money,
now baby what more can I do?
I don't give you all my money,
baby what more can I do?
He said you was a good girl,
but you just won't be, too
Now this man had to give this girl
all his money
He had a wife and a sweetheart, too
And his sweetheart,
he'd give all his money
And last one day, he done got
tired and got broke
And he looked at her
He said, I'll give you all my money,
you ain't satisfied, but I can go home.
I got somebody that'll
make you leave me alone.
And he didn't have to give her no money,
she was pretty good looking.
He looked at her.
Sail on.
Sail on, pretty gal, sail on.
Sail on.
Sail on, pretty gal, sail on
You're gonna keep on sail in',
tell me who you have at home
Come and park down here and
talk to me, baby
Just before you sail away
Park down here and talk to me,
baby, before you sail away.
When you get back there,
you may not have no place to stay.
Oh, you know you didn't want me
When you lay down across my bed
Drinkin' all that good whiskey
Talkin' all out your head
Baby, you know you didn't want me
When you lay down across my bed
Take it all, my high -chest whiskey,
comin' all out your head.
