Ref.: How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?
Well, why do you try to make me feel so blue?
I've ain’t done nothing to you
I’m gonna lay your head, on the railroad line
I want the train to come along and bash bye your mind
How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?
Coda: Well, How come you do me like you do,
Like you do, like you do-do
***Alt. refrain***
If you ain’t got a home before I’m done
I get myself a shovel and I dig you one
How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?

Chorus:
How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?
Well, why do you try to make me feel so blue?
I've ain’t done nothing to you
I’m gonna lay your head, on the railroad line
I want the train to come along and bash bye your mind
How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?
*Alt. lyrics for part 2 of the chorus*
If you ain’t got a home before I’m done
I get myself a shovel and I dig you one
How come you do me like you do, do, do?
How come you do me like you do?
