Corrine, Corrine, what makes you treat me so?
Corrine, what makes you treat me so?
Corrine, Corrine, what makes you treat me so?
You done stop me from knocking at your door.

Little girl, what have I did to you?
Little girl, what have I did to you?
Little girl, little girl, what have I did to you?
'Fore you treat me just like you do, do, do.

Lord, Lord, have mercy on poor me.
And it's Lord, have mercy on poor me.
Now it's Lord, have mercy, I say on poor me.
Lord, it's nothing but trouble in the world I see.

Lord, I'm going, I'm going crying won't make me stay.
Yes I'm going, your crying won't make me stay.
Yes I'm going, and your crying, sure Lord, won't make me stay.
I'm going stay away for all my days.

Little girl, I wants to know how can it be.
Little girl, wants to know how can it be.
Little girl, little girl, how in the world can it be.
You love someone and you don't love me.
