MM:
I wouldn't mind being your hopping frog
Drink muddy water, sleep in a hollow log
Now I've got tired the way you treated me
And I believe I'll go now, back to my used to be
KJ:
One thing certainly can't understand
Cornbread for me and biscuits for your man
Now I've got tired the way you treated me
And I believe I'll go now, back to my used to be
MM:
You know I been begging you so long. so long
Quit your foolishness, bring your clothes back home
Now I've got tired the way you treated me
And I believe I'll go now, back to my used to be
KJ:
Before I got you, I had my diamonds on
Now I got you, they all in pawn
Now I've got tired the way you treated me
And I believe I'll go now, back to my used to be
MM:
If I could holler like a mountain jack
Go up on the mountain, call them diamonds back
Now I've got tired the way you treated me
And I believe I'll go now, back to my used to be
