Hey listen honey 
Something you should know 
This can't wait 
I've been meaning to tell you 
A long time ago 
And today's that day 
I'll put it straight 
No, it just can't wait 
 
Oh sure, it took a little time 
I know that's true 
But this business 
Been preying on my mind 
Since I met you 
The thing is babe,  
 
Between your mama and yourself 
Forced to choose and without help 
With a margin, you know it's true 
The one I love 
Well, it's eh...prpbably you 
 
C'mon now, stay a little while 
Before you go 
This thing, it's been preying on my  
mind  
But even so 
This I know 
 
Between your mama and yourself 
Forced to choose and without help 
With a margin, you know it's true 
The one I love 
Well, it's eh...prpbably you 
 
You've got to know 
It's got to show 
Yeah, I've got to let her go
