I was not a man of sorrow 'Til I saw you from a far Nothing's free that has a meaning Should have known right from the start How could you just leave me lying? With a dagger in my heart I can see our love is dying And its d**h will do us part Baby please, don't come and rescue me Can't you see? You gotta set me free Left out in the scorching desert Without shade, without a light
My grief and sorrow was your pleasure For 40 days and 40 nights Now I'm out of pleads and praying There's somewhere else I'd rather be Too many women still left waiting Your sister looks real good to me Baby please, don't come and rescue me Can't you see? You gotta set me free Oh you don't fool me With that angel face You're double dealer No matter what you say
