You said I was your friend, boy
A friend you really did like
But every time I leave home
You bite me in the back
That's why I don't want you
Hanging 'round my home no more
Yeah, that's why I'm tellin' you, buddy
Somebody sure has got to go
I come home in the evenin'
My daily work is done
My bed is all torn up
And my supper is never done
That's why I don't want you
Hanging 'round my wife no more
Yeah, that's why I'm tellin' you, buddy
Somebody sure has got to go
You've been tellin' everybody
That you're just plain in luck
My wife cook mе neck bones and beans
And shе cook you chicken and duck
That's why I don't want you
Hanging 'round my home no more
Yeah, that's why I'm tellin' you, buddy
Somebody sure has got to go
