Lyrics

(by Eugene McDaniel)

Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself

Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself

You say I`ve been spending my money on other women

You`ve been taking money from someone else

I called your mama `bout three or four nights ago

I called your mama `bout three or four nights ago

Well your mother said "Son"

"Don`t call my daughter no more"

First Verse

Come back home baby, try my love one more time

Come back home baby, try my love one more time

If I don`t go on and quit you

I`m gonna lose my mind

First Verse
