Oh Baby, You Done Me Wrong

Heard of a preacher just as true as life
But he married a scolding wife
She wouldn't trust him out of her sight
The pars' didn't think she's atreatin him right

Hello, babe, she says
You done me wrong
You went down town
Said you stayed too long

Parson went to plotting the truth to tell
They went to Miami, had a big hotel
They went to the beach and the beach was fine
Food for divorce in an hour's time

Hello, babe, she says
You done me wrong
You went down town
Said you stayed too long

The parson begged just wait awhile
I only went for to see the styles
She replied, "With no excuse"
"For right here parson I'll turn you loose"

Hello, babe, she says
You done me wrong
You went down town
Said you stayed too long

Parson stood with tears in his eyes
Loking at his wife, says, "I'm surprised"
Then she said, "You need not be"
"You fancied the beauties more than me"

Hello, babe, she says
You done me wrong
You went down town
Said you stayed too long

Now here parson, I've this to stay
"From the beach you stay away"
Well of all the women I ever knew
I don't know what to think of you

Hello, babe, she says
You done me wrong
You went down town
Said you stayed too long
