I've been working from seven to eleven every night
It really makes life a drag
I don't think that's right
I've really been the best, the best of fools
But you know I did what I could, yeah
'Cause I love you, baby
Oh, I love you, baby
Oh, I love you, little girl
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind
Everybody tried to tell me
That you didn't mean me no good
I've tried, I've tried to do the best I could
I've been working from seven to eleven every night
Yes, it's a drag - yes, it's a drag
Lord, that ain't right, no, no
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind
Oh baby, I've been crying
My tears they fell like rain
Oh, stop these tears from falling
Mama, please stop these tears from falling
Do you remember, mama, when I knocked upon your door?
You had the nerve to tell me you didn't want me no more
I open my front door - hear my back door slam
Hey baby, you must have a back door man
I've been working from seven, seven, seven
I know it's a drag - yes, it's a drag
Baby, since I've been loving you
I'm about to lose my worried mind
Please make me lose my worried mind
