Good gawd O' lawd
I can't hide it.
 
Suppose to be doing other things.
Here she go again
Showing her face.
 
She packed her bags.
Left before the door could close.
Left fa' anotha man.
 
Lawd A mercy
Here she is again.
Showing her face.
 
I can't hide it lawd.
Catching the door fo' it close.
Suppose to be doing other things.
 
Find these old receipts.
Piece my heart here and there.
Good lawd I hid it from ma' self
 
She claimin' she leavin'
Come back wondering round
Showing her face.
Lawd A mercy
 
Left before the door could close
Left fa' anotha man
Lawd A mercy
Here she go again

Here I go again
Catching the door fo' it close.
