Four in the morning
And the water is pouring down
Stove don't work
And my baby has just left town

Lying on my back
Cause there just ain't nothing to drink
Empty bottles on the floor
Dirty dishes in the sink

Four in the morning
And the water is pouring down
Stove don't work
And my baby has just left town

I'm watching a cockroach
Crawling in an old bean can
He said when your baby left you
I bet it's tough to be a man (2x)

She met Joe with her legs
and knees all bandaged up
Came asking for some money
And all I had was a buck

Four in the morning
And the water is pouring down
Stove don't work
And my baby has just left town
