That Will Never Do

(album: Freddie King Is A Blues Master - 1969)

Well, my baby collects my paycheck
She's spending free and wide
She got in a new place lately
She treats me like a child
But baby, that will never do
If that's the way you gonna treat me, baby
You might as well say we're through

Now, it's got to a place lately
I can't tell her what to do
She will shake a finger in my face
And say, "I'm working just like you"
But baby, that will never do
Now, if that's the way you gonna treat me, baby
You might as well say we're through

Well, the woman is so jealous
She don't want me to go to work
Now she raise all my sins
Whenever we go to church
Well, listen, baby, that will never do
Now, if that's the way you gonna treat me, baby
You might as well say we're through

Well, baby, that will never do
Well, baby, that will never do
Now, if that's the way you gonna be
You might as well say we're through
