[G]
I woke up this morning and I looked at my daughter.
I thought I heard my milk cow.
I know the way she [C] looks.
If you see my milk cow, why don't [Gm] you drive her home?
[G] [D] We had no milk [C] and butter since that [F] good [G] cow been gone.
I tried and I tried, you know, to get through to you.
Now let me tell [C] you, baby, what [G] I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna be [C] trying, [G] gonna leave you alone.
If you [Dm] don't think I'm leaving, [Gm] you count me dead.
[C] I'm going, you'll need it, my love.
You'll need [G] it someday.
Then [D] you're gonna [C] be sorry.
