Competition Bed Blues

Competition worryin' me, I don't even know what competition mean
 Competition worryin' me, do you realize what competition mean?
 It pops up at every man's door and
 it worries him in his midnight dream
 I had a lovin' brown, I didn't never mean to do her wrong
 I had a lovin' brown, I didn't never mean to do her wrong
 My partner's so full of competition, he's got my gal and gone
 I passed my partner's house, I stopped in to comb my head
 I passed my partner's house, I stopped in to comb my head
 Who should I find, but my brown makin' up my partner's bed
 Almost wrecked my mind, competition's goin' between me and my friend
 Almost wrecked my mind, competition's goin' between me and my friend
 It hurts me so, I thought we'd be pals 'til the end
 It makes a man feel bad for his partner to turn him down
 It makes a man feel bad for his partner to throw him down
 Now it's so much competition, I believe I'll leave this town

 Competition worryin' me, do you realize what competition mean?
 Competition worryin' me, and do you realize what competition mean?
 Pops up at every man's door and it worries him in his midnight dream
 I had a lovin' brown, I didn't mean to do her wrong
 Had a lovin' brown, I didn't mean to do her wrong
 My partner's so full of competition, he got my good gal and gone
 I found my partner's house, I stopped in to comb my head
 I stopped in my partner's house, stopped in to comb my head
 Who did I find, but my darlin' makin' up my partner's bed
 It almost wrecked my mind,
 competition's goin' between me and my friend
 I say it almost wrecked my mind,
 competition's goin' between me and my friend
 It hurts me so, I thought we was gonna be pals until the end
 It makes a man feel bad for his partner to turn him down
 Yes it makes a man feel bad for his partner to turn him down
 Said it's so much competition, I believe I'll leave this town
