  Bob Dylan's Garage Studio, Malibu, CA - May 1993  

Strange things have happened that never before
My baby told me i would have to go
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, because the world gone wrong.

Feel bad this morning, ain't got no home
No use in worrying 'cause the world goin' wrong
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, because the world goin' wrong.

I told you baby, right to your head
If i didn't leave you, i would have to kill you dead
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, 'cause the world goin' wrong.

I tried to be lovin', and treat you kind
But it seem like you're never right, you got no love in y' mind
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, 'cause the world's goin' wrong.

If you had a woman and she don't treat you kind
Praise the good Lord to get her off of your mind
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, because the world goin' wrong.

Said when you be good now, can't do no more
Just tell her kindly, there is a front door
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, because the world's goin' wrong.

Pack up my suitcase, give me my hat
No use to ask me baby, 'cause i'll never be back
I can't be good no more, once like i did before
I can't be good baby, honey, because the world gone wrong.
