Waylon Jennings - Do No Good Woman lyrics

You're looking at a man who's living in the wrong time My mind's lost in my lonesome past I wrote myself a sad song about troubles and a worried mind And a do no good woman, my first love and my last Well, I wanted the world to know her like I do So I tried to paint her picture in a song I sang the blues but the only words that I knew We're do no good woman I love, you right or wrong girl Lord, Lord, what's a good man gonna do From the streets of New Orleans to a penthouse in Chicago I tried to play the lover for a time But you just can't hold a woman in the night with the lights low With a do no good woman always on your mind Look at me and you can see I've seen my better days Hoping for better times to come Well, I never thought that love could drive a good man into his grave But do no good woman, Lord, you damn near got it done, girl
