Well when I was a young-un
they used to teach me
to play music like this here
When I look in your face baby
When I look in your eyes
I can tell pretty mama
I been wastin' time
'Cause you don't really love me
You just love me for what I am
But you best treat me right woman
Gonna lose your money man
Well when I first met you baby
you was a red light girl
But I tried to take you
to better world
But you would not listen
Still you think I am a fool
Well you had it made
in the shade baby
Don't let that tree fall down
on you
Well I work the railroad each
and every day
Well I work real hard
tryin' to make my pay
Lord I never tell you
what you supposed to say
Girl you had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down
on you
Girl you had it made in the shade
Don't let that tree fall down
on you
