Suppose I cut you loose, I know I wouldn't shake this curse
I'd find another man and he'd be just as bad or worse
That's why I'm throwing up my hands and I'm gonna holler, what's the use?
Cause I know I ought'a but I ain'ta no I ain't gonna cut you loose.
I ain't gonna cut you loose.
I just can't let you go.
I know you're bad for me baby
But I love you anyway
I don't wanna cut you loose.
I ain't gonna cut you loose.
I don't wanna cut you loose.
Ah, no, no, no.
