Well, I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind
If you really gonna leave me
Let me love you just one more time
Well, you know I love you baby
I need your lovin' bad
Well, give me some sweet love right this minute
Or you're gonna make me mad
I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind

Well, you love me then you leave me
And I cry the whole night through
Yeah, you love me then you leave me
And I don't know what to do
I need your little ol' arms around me
To hold and squeeze me tight
But you just love and leave me girl
And you know that, that ain't right
I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind

I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind
Well, now won't you love me baby
And I know I goin' to lose my mind
Well, you know I love you honey
But you don't treat me right
Better give me just a little bit of your sweet lovin'
Or we're gonna have a big fight
I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind

Well, the river looks cold
And the bottom is a long way down
If you really gonna leave me
That's where I'm gonna be found
When the mailman comes in the mornin'
There's a note up on my door
Just bring my mail to the bottom of the river
I don't live here no more
I'm a man who's got nothin'
But sweet love on my mind
