Serves You Right To Suffer

(album: The J. Geils Band - 1970)

It serve you right to suffer
Serve you right to be alone
Serve you right to suffer
Serve you right to be alone
Because you're still living
In days done past and gone

Ev'rytime you see a woman
She make you think of yours
Yeah, ev'rytime you see a woman
She make you think of yours
And that's why, that's why, that's why
You can't keep from crying

Your doctor put you on
Milk, cream and alcohol
Your doctor put you on
Milk, cream and alcohol
He told you that's why
You can't sleep at night
From nerves, so bad
Yeah.

Ev'ry time you see a woman
She makes you think of yours
Ev'rytime you see a woman
She make you think of your own
She treated you so bad
You just couldn't keep from crying

Umm, mmm, mmm
Your life never be the same
Umm, umm, mmm
You're still living in the days
Done gone past and gone
And memories
Yeah-yeah

You can't live on
In that way
In the past
Them days
Is gone

Gone
