Now listen here honey you been doing me wrong
And I ain't said nothing for so doggone long
But I don't like the way you been treating me
So early tomorrow I'm setting you free

Well I done seen a lawyer and the papers are clear
If you don't like the charges when you read it my dear
Think back at the times when you were cheating on me
You'll find the charges are true I'm setting me free

When I go tomorrow for my final decree
Then I won't be around for you to worry me
I've thought it all over no use pleading with me
Better find you a new love cause I'm setting you free
