	        (As performed by George Jones)   (1955) 
 
 
                      
G       C 
Tell me why baby, why baby, why baby why 
            G                   D       G 
You make me cry baby, cry baby, cry baby 
        C  
Lord, I can't help but love you 'til the day that I die 
             G                   D        G 
So tell me, why baby, why baby, why baby why
 
 
 
 
 
                                    D 
Well I got a crow I wanna pick with you 
      C                       G 
Just like last time when the feathers flew 
                                     D 
You're runnin' wild kickin' up your heels 
   C                      D            G 
A-leavin' me home with a hand full of bills 
 
 
                                                  D 
Lord, I can't live without you and you know it's true 
     C                             G 
But there's no livin' with you so what'll I do 
                                            D 
I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as I can 
     C                          D          G 
And maybe by then you'll 'preciate a good man 
 
 
Repeat Chorus 
                                       D 
Well, now I don't know, but I've heard say 
     C                           G 
That ever' little dog is a-gonna have his day 
                                              D 
You'd better pay attention, don't you dare forget 
            C                  D     G 
'Cause I'm just a little bitty puppy yet 
 
 
                                              D 
Well, I caught you honky tonkin' with my best friend 
     C                                G 
The thing to do was leave you, but I should'a left then 
                                              D 
Now I'm too old to leave you, but I still get sore 
      C                               D           G 
When you come home a-feelin' for the knob on the door 
 
 
Repeat Chorus
