Cryin', oh, oh, baby, why don't you let a good thing do?
Cry, oh, baby, why don't you let a good thing do?
Now, if you'll make a change, I swear I'll be kind and true

You leave me in the mornin', you stay out all night
And when you come home, baby, we don't do nothin' but fight
REFRAIN: But I'm cryin', oh, baby, why don't you let a good thing do?
Now, if you'll make a change, I swear that I'll be kind and true

You told me, baby, you was born in nineteen hundred and nine
But there ain't a woman can mistreat a good man all the time
REFRAIN: I'm cryin', cry, oh, baby, why don't you let a good thing do?
Now, if you'll make a change, I swear I'll be kind and true

Sometime I think I love you and sometime I think i don't
Sometime I think I quit you and sometime I think I won't

REFRAIN: I'm cryin', oh, baby, why don't you let a good thing do?
Now, if you'll make a change, I swear I'll be kind and true
