You know I´m hooked for you mama
That´s why you sling your weight around

You Know I´m hooked for you mama
That´s why you sling your weight around

But as long as your lovin´ beats your hoggin´
Little Girl I´ll never put you down

[2nd Verse]

You argue when I leave for work
You argue when I get home
Everything I try to do for you
You always say that I´m wrong
I bring you home all my money
Except the little I keep for expense
And when I get home to you mama you always tell me
´´Ray you ain´t got nooo sense´´

[Chorus]

But on the other hand baby
You I can understand

Ah, But when you put your loving arms around me honey
You make me forget about everything

[3rd Verse]

I think about the lousy way you treat me
Your always-raising sin
I know that you know that I know
That you´ve got another man
Ah, Half the time that I´m at home
I have to go to a café and eat
And when you argue all night long
I have to go down to the den and sleep

[Chorus]

But on the other hand baby
Your loving eases all my pain

And when you put your loving arms around me honey
You make old Ray forget about everything
