Stop breakin' down
Baby, ple-ease stop breakin' down
Stop breakin' down, now
Baby, ple-ease stop breakin' down, yeah
I don't believe you really, really love me
I think you just like the way my music sound, now

Now, an I'm gonna tell you somethin', baby
A-baby, that you really, really can't do
I know you can't love me, baby
You gon' try, an love some other man, too
But stop breakin' down
Baby, ple-ease stop breakin' down, now
I don't believe you really, really love me
I think you just like the way my music sound, now

Now, I'm gonna tell you somethin' else, baby
I know you ain't goin' to like
But when I quit you this time, baby
You know I ain't gon', never take you back

But stop breakin' down
Baby, ple-ease stop breakin' down
I don't believe you really, really love me
I think you just like the way my music sound, yeah

(harmonica & instrumental)

Now, an the reason I know you's alright, baby mm
A-because you told me so
An I don't care what people say 'bout you
I love you, a-ev'rywhere you go

But you must stop breakin' down, now
Baby, ple-ease stop breakin' down
I don't believe you really, really love me
I think you just like the way my music sound.
