Lyrics Cut You Loose - Otis Rush

Well I work, I work, work pretty baby
What have I got to show
The only thing you give me baby
A hard way to go

But I'm throwin' up both of my hands
I'm gonna holler "What's the use"
Well I oughta but I ain't-a
Oh yeah, cut you a-loose, cut you a-loose

Well I'm full, I'm full, full pretty baby
Right up to my neck
The only time that you're nice to me baby
When I cash my check

Well, I'm throwin' up both of my hands
I'm gonna holler "What's the use"
Well I oughta but I ain't-a
Oh yeah, cut you a-loose, I'm gonna cut you a-loose

Well I talk, I talk, talk pretty baby
You don't seem to understand
So why am I standing here asking why
I'm throwin' up both of my hands

Well, I'm throwin' up both of my hands
I'm gonna holler "What's the use"
Well I oughta but I ain't-a
Oh yeah, cut you a-loose, I'm gonna cut you a-loose

Well I talk, I talk, talk pretty baby
You don't seem to understand
So why am I standing here asking why
I'm throwin' up both of my hands

Well, I'm throwin' up both of my hands
I'm gonna holler "What's the use"
Well I oughta but I ain't-a
Oh yeah, cut you a-loose

Suppose I cut you loose
I know I'm gonna check this curse
I found another pretty little baby
Who will be just the same or worse

Well, I'm goin' out over my head
I'm gonna holler "What's the use"
Well I oughta but I ain't-a
Oh yeah, cut you a-loose
