Why Baby Why
recorded by George Jones
written by Darrell Edwards and George Jones

(chorus 1)
[G] Tell me [C] why baby, why baby, why baby why,
You make me [G] cry baby, cry baby, [D7] cry baby [G] [G7]
I [C] can't help but love you 'til the day that I die,
So tell me, [G] why baby, why baby, [D7] why baby [G] why.

1. [G] well I got a crow I wan'na pick with [D7] you,
Just [C] like last time when the [G] feathers flew,
You're runnin' wild a-kickin' up your [D7] heels,
A-[C]leavin' me home with a [D] hand full of [G] bills.
I can't live without you and you know it's [D]) true,
But [C] there's no livin' with you so [G] what'll I do,
I'm goin' honky tonkin', get as tight as I [D7] can,
And [C] maybe by then you'll 'pre-ci-[D7]ate a good [G] man. [G7]

(chorus 2)
Tell me [C] why baby, why baby, why baby why,
You make me [G] cry baby, cry baby, [D7] cry baby [G] cry. [G]
I [C] can't live without you 'til the day that I die,
So tell me [G] why baby, why baby, [D7] why baby [G] why.

2. Well I don't know, but I've heard [D7] say,
[C] Ever' little dog is gonna [G] have his day,
You'd better pay attention, don't you dare for-[D7]get,
'Cause I'm [C] certainly not a little [D7] puppy [G] yet.
I caught you honky tonkin' with my best [D7]friend,
The [C] thing to do was leave you, but I [G] should'a left then,
Now I'm too old to leave you, but I still get [D7] sore,
When you [C]come home a'feelin' for the [D7]knob on the [G]door. [G7]

(repeat chorus 1)
