I Don't Wanna Lose, Lose, You

Shorty and Slim just standing on the corner,
Trying to find a way I gotta burn another quarter
Half ounce in hand, just another piece of cake
Getting dough is hard to make.

I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose you.

Always on the down-low, getting kinda high
Keep it in my pocket 'til it starts runnin' shy
Over and over 'til the day is done,
Twenty dollars, cut 'n run.

I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose you.

Mississippi Sam, whiskey and wine,
You know it's just a matter of time.
I don't wanna lose you.

Yeah just like the dead man laying about,
Don't wanna run short or turn inside out
She don't lie, and that's the bad news,
You know it, I'm speaking the truth.

I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose, lose you,
I don't wanna lose you.

Lose, lose you...
