Jimmy Reed - Can't Stand To Leave Lyrics

(Al Smith)

I can't stand ta' leave ya, baby, you'll break my heart if you go
I can't stand ta' leave ya, baby, you'll break my heart if you go
I know you got-a thing goin' on, down at the corner grocery store

When I left you this mornin', you didn't have a lousy dime
When I left you this mornin', baby, you didn't have a lousy dime
When I got back, baby, ya had your favorite bottle a-wine

I forgive you, baby, for ev'rything you said an' done
I forgive you, baby, for ev'rything you said an' done
Ya better forget the grocery store, baby, and find yourself another run
