I Put My Trust on You Songtext
von John Lee Hooker

I couldn′t believe, I couldn't believe you′d let me down
I just couldn't believe, I couldn't believe, you would let me down
I′ve been too good to you, baby, you′d hurt me the way you did
My friend tried to tell me, you didn't mean me no good
I didn′t believe a word he said, I couldn't believe it, ooh
I couldn′t believe, you would let me down
I done lost everything I had, baby
I can't believe you would let me down

You goes downtown, to the judge
You tell the judge, "Everything he got, give it to me"
You looked up at me
Hit the road Jack
And don′t come back no more


I couldn't believe, you let me down, baby
I'm leavin′ now baby, done lost my home
My brand-new car, baby
I know, I know another man gonna move in
But I can′t believe, treatin' me the way you did

Now baby, look at here, baby
How could you treat me the way you did, baby?

I just couldn′t believe, I couldn't believe you would let me down
Good as I′ve been to you, baby
I'm goin′ now, baby
All I got, all I got, is on my back
I've gotta go now, baby
I better go now, baby, baby
I just couldn't believe, hmm
Ooh, ah-yeah, oh-yeah, aye, baby
