My baby's got another lover, It's something I don't understand My baby's got another lover, and I just can't understand She says she don't want this thing at all, this lover ain't no natural man It's a chillin' kind of love, ain't got no soft and tender ways It's a killin' kind of love, ain't got no soft and tender ways It haunts her most every evening, and steals every one of her days I'm afraid this love will kill her, God knows it's killin' me Oh I fear this love will kill my baby, God knows it's killin' me She says she wants to leave this thing behind but it just will not set her free She says this love only has her mind and body, and that I still have all her heart Says it's only got her mind and body, and I've still got her heart But what good does that do, when this thing is tearing me apart
