I came home last night about a quarter past four
Without a worry on my mind
I slowly slipped through the kitchen door
I thought I was doing right fine
But when I sneaked into my room and started to slip into bed
I found a note pinned to the wall and this is what it said
You done lost your baby, lost your baby
Lost your baby, tonight
You done lost your baby, honey
Baby, you just ain't been treatin' baby right
You come home every night about a quarter past four
And then you think a sneakin' through the kitchen door
You done lost your baby, lost your baby
Lost your baby, tonight
Well, my knees started shakin' and my stomach was achin'
And my head went into a spin
I said this just couldn't happened to me
This must be a dream that I'm in
So I stood there a shakin' for a minute or two
And then I sat down on the bed
But when I opened her note once more still it plainly read
You done lost your baby, lost your baby
Lost your baby, tonight
You done lost your baby, honey
Baby, you just ain't been treatin' baby right
Well you trifled on your baby many times before
But you ain't gonna trifle on your baby no more
You done lost your baby, lost my baby
Lost your baby tonight, yeah
