Why Baby Why

Hank Locklin

Lyrics

Tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

You make me cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry

I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die

But tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

Well, I got a crow I wanna pick with you

Just like last time when the feathers flew

You're running wild a-kickin' up your heels

A-leavin' me home with a handful of bills

I can't live without you and you know it's true

But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do

I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as I can

And maybe by then, you'll 'preciate a good man

Tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

You make me cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry

I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die

But tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

Well, I don't know but I've heard say

That every little dog is gonna have his day

You better pay attention, don't you dare forget

'Cause I'm just a little baby puppy yet

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend

The thing to do was leave you, but I should've left then

Now I'm too old to leave you but I still get sore

When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door

Tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

You make me cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry

I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die

But tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?

Tell me why, baby? Why, baby? Why, baby? Why?
