John Lee Hooker - It Serves You Right To Suffer Lyrics

Artist: John Lee Hooker

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: Blues

It serve you right to suffer, serve you right to be alone
Serve you right to suffer, serve you right to be alone
Because you're still livin' in days done past and gone

Ev'rytime you see a woman she make you think of yours
Yeah, ev'rytime you see a woman she make you think of yours
And that's why, that's why, that's why you can't keep from cryin'

Your doctor put you on milk, cream and alcohol
Your doctor put you on milk, cream and alcohol
He told you that's why you can't sleep at night
From nerves, so bad, yeah

Ev'ry time you see a woman she makes you think of yours
Ev'rytime you see a woman she make you think of your own
She treated you so bad you just couldn't keep from cryin'

Umm, mmm, mmm, your life never be the same
Umm, umm, mmm, you're still livin' in the days
Done gone past and gone and memories, yeah, yeah

You can't live on in that way, in the past
Them days is gone, gone
