Lyrics John Lee Hooker

John Lee Hooker

Cry Before I Go

If you gotta cry, baby, little girl, cry before I go

You gotta cry, baby, little girl, cry before I go

There ain't nothin' you can say, a-make me stay another day

Your my lovin', whoa, I was so green

I gave ya all of my lovin', whoa, I was so green

Well, now I know the score, Jimmy Reed, got to split the scene

Watch you cryin', baby, give me a reason I shouldn't go

Watch you cry, baby, give me a reason I shouldn't go

If it makes any sense to me, baby, I'll come walkin' back in that door
