Testo Nine Below Zero

Ain't this a pity?
People need sit down and cry in shame
Oh yes, ain't this a pity?
People need to sit down and cry in shame
Well you know it's nine below zero
And this woman done put me down for another man

I gave her all my money All my lovin' and everything
Yes, I gave her all my money
All my lovin' and everything
Well you know it's nine below zero
And she done put me down for another man

She lied to me
She did not tell me everything
Oh yeah, oh yeah, she lied to me
The little girl didn't tell me everything
Well you know I'm nine below zero
And she put me down for another man

Ain't this a pity?
People need sit down and cry in shame Oh yes, ain't this a pity?
People need to sit down and cry in shame
She waited 'til it got nine below zero
And this little girl done put me down for another man

(Somebody gotta help me now)
(I can't do it by myself)

I'm gonna retire down in Luisiana
Layin' out there in the pourin' rain, in the swamps too
I'm gonna retire down in Luisiana
Layin' out there in the pourin' rain
You know it's nine below zero here in Chicago
And my love don't mean a thing
