People say that you’re no good
But I wouldn’t cut you loose, baby, if I could
Well, I seem to stay down on the ground
Baby, I’m too far gone to turn around
Oh, if only you would make up your mind
Take me where you go, you’re leaving me behind
Lord, you got those come and go blues
Lord, you got those some and go blues
Yes, you do, oh and you got me feelin’ like a fool

‘Round ‘n’ ’round, ’round we go, –
Don’t ask me why I stay here, I don’t know
Well maybe I’m a fool to care
Without your sweet love, baby I would be nowhere
Here I’ll stay, locked in your web
Till that day I might find somebody else
I don’t know just when that would be
I don’t know, I can’t say as I can’t see
Lord you got me feeling like a fool

Sail on, darlin’, sail on
Woman, you go your way, and I’ll go mine
Seems to me, that I once heard
That everything is finally cured by time
So sail on, darlin’, sail on
Lord, I wish you good luck
And I’ll see you when you come next time

Woman, you got those come and go blues
Yeah, you got those come and go blues
Yes, you do, oh and you got me feelin’ like a fool
