You know, baby, when you first left me,
I didn't think it was gonna bother me.
But every day I miss you more and more,
and now I'm living in misery
You're down on your luck now,
like I used to be
But baby, you can depend on me
I let you wreck my brand new car
You got away with that
You took all my money
And cut my good clothes
Right off my back
No matter how you treat me
Girl, can't you see, darling
You can depend on me
You left here
Friday evening, came back
Saturday with your wig in your hand
Come tellin' me you were in jail,
cause another woman jumped on you
Said you were goin' with her old man
You said you were playin' cards
with your two best friends
But when you found out that I saw him,
another life begins
I overlooked all them phone
calls all hours of the night
And I'd answer and they'd hang up
That was out of sight
But when I came home earlier one night
As I passed the window
I heard you talking that sweet talk
And baby, that really hurt
I know you're the man he's left to now
And you're in misery
But baby, you can depend on me
You can depend on me
In the midnight hour
You can depend on me
Every day now
You can depend on me
Every, every way
Can depend on me
