George Jones - My Baby Left Her Jinglin' John For Foldin' Fred lyrics

Well, my baby left her jinglin' John for foldin' Fred True love never backed up one word that she said That proved to me that a black bear is green when it's red My baby left her jinglin' John for foldin' Fred. My baby told me, Honey, you're poor but I love you And you could make me happy just livin' in a little old shack You seemed real happy with my jinglin' John's pocket money Till the grapevine told her that foldin' Fred was back. Well, my baby left her jinglin' John for foldin' Fred True love never backed up one word that she said That proved to me that a black bear is green when it's red My baby left her jinglin' John for folddin' Fred Now her love was sweeter than a great big watermelon And love was fifty-fifty right done the middle of the line I'd a-been better off if I'd never of tasted her lovin' She took the heart from a melon and left me nothin' but the rhine. Well, my baby left her jinglin' John for foldin' Fred True love never backed up one word that she said That proved to me that a black bear is green when it's red My baby left her jinglin' John for folddin' Fred. Well, my baby left her jinglin' John for foldin' Fred
