Al Green - So You’re Leaving lyrics

So you're leaving me today
Just because of what they say
You took their word against mine
Friends do lie sometime
Before you walk out the door
Let me say this once more
Girl, you the one for me
Open your eyes, can't you see?

And now you're leaving me
Hey, baby, now you wanna wanna leave me
Yeah, baby, I'll tell you

Tryna find a way that I can make you stay
You won't hear a word I say
Think you wanna leave me anyway
Go on, don't break their hearts
I knew right from the start
If they'll lie on Jesus, can't you see
They'll lie on you and me?

Now you're leaving me hey, baby, oh
Now you're leaving me
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I wanna say

Why go and take my life
If you can stay and be my wife?
You just feel like mine
And our hearts beats right on time
So, go on, don't break our hearts
And I knew from the start
If they'll lie on Jesus, can't you see
They'll lie on you and me?

Now you're leaving me
Why you wanna? No, please, don't
Now why you leaving me?
Hey, baby, I wanna say

Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo (Aw, yeah)
Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo
(One more time, say)
Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo (Let me say)
Boo boo boo boo boo boo boo boo

I wanna know, why you leaving me?
Won't you come on back, baby?
Ain't no sense in leaving me
Hey, baby, I want to be your leading man
Why you why you wanna go?
Why you wanna why you leaving me?
Hey baby, I wanna know who you love
Tell me who you love
I wanna know who you love why you leaving?
Wanna know, why you leaving me?
Why you, why you, why you wanna go?
Hey baby, woo, why you wanna go?
I wanna know why you wanna go
Tell me, tell me who do you love?
Who do you love? Who do you love?
Who do you love? Why you leaving me?
