Lletres: Patty Loveless. Sleepless Nights. Why Baby Why.

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry

Well, I got a crow I wanna pick with you
Just like last time when the feathers flew
You're runnin' wild a kickin' up your heels
A leavin' me home with a hand full of bills

I can't live without you and you know that it's true
But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do
I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as a spring
And maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good thing

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
I can't live without you 'til the day that I die
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why

Well, I don't know, but I've heard say
Ever' little dog is gonna have his day
You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget
'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yet

I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend
The thing to do was leave you, I should'a left then
You know I still love you, but I still get sore
When you come home a feelin' for the knob on the door

Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
I can't live without you 'til the day that I die
So tell me why baby, why baby, why baby, why
Ooh, why baby, why baby, why baby, why
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby, cry
