But I caught my baby, cheatin' My home ain't where it used to be (Harmonica & instrumental) ♪ I got bread and milk for breakfast Milk and bread at supertime ♪ I got bread and milk for breakfast Milk and bread at the supertime ♪ And the food I got for dinner It's a low down, dirty crime Yes, I shot my baby I did it because she treated me wrong ♪ I shot my baby Did it because she treat me wrong
Now, the only thing I have This lonesome jail that I call home. ~
