Well, listen here, girl, I wanna talk to you, now

My friends say you been seein' somebody new

To me
Verse 2:
Well, I've been thinkin' 'bout it, girl, I won't tell you again, now
Cheatin' on me is the ultimate sin
I don't give a tinker's [dam], baby, what you do
I got a half a dozen women, baby, just like you
Ain't no woman gonna treat me the way that you do
[repeat chorus]
[harmonica solo over chorus chords]
Verse 3 (piano R.H. plays A5 in eighth notes during first three lines)
Well, do you think I care if you leave or stay
I couldn't care less, that's the way I'm made
I ain't gonna cry if you leave me flat
'Cause there ain't no woman that's worth all that
Baby, I hope you know just where you're at
[repeat chorus, 3X]
[harmonica over chorus chords; fade after four bars]
