Lyrics
Chorus
Oh! it’s that tantalizin’, hypnotizin’
Aggravatin’, irresistin’ strain
Play it again, oh play it again
For every time I think of the one
Who stole from me the beautiful sun
And left my life in darkness and in pain
It makes me lonely, ’cause I want only you
But there will come a time someday
When you will want my love
And I’ll be far away
Baby O’ mine you used to be mine
This way you’ve got of treating me, Lawd
Sure is coming home to you hard
The good book says you reap
Just what you sow
You can’t resist it, the irresistible blues
