And plus he [Em]cheated on her,
beated on her, smack dead in the rain
She lost [Am]her first child in 74
And that lead to nervous [Em]breakdowns
Bacardi dark she downin' it raw
She can't take it she constantly cryin'
fallin' down on her knees
Like help me lord please I'm ready to leave
All [Dm]she needed was somebody
to rub her feet
Give her a nice hug and rescue her
[Am]from off these streets
