Valerie (Live at Cape Cod Coliseum, South Yarmouth, MA, June 18, 1982)

Jerry Garcia, Robert Hunter

[Verse 1]
Valerie, baby, what's the matter with you?
Come on, tell me, baby, and tell me true
Hey now, baby, what did I do?
I shot my dog 'cause he growled at you
Valerie, won't you be good to me?

[Verse 2]
Valerie, baby, what's the matter with you?
Come on, baby, and tell me true
I went downtown with my pocketknife
I cut your other man but I spared his life
Valerie, won't you be good to me?

[Bridge]
Valerie, what's the matter with me?
I never, ever done you no wrong
I sing the blues nearly all night long
Valerie, what's the matter with me?
You know I'd do everything you say
Can't understand why you tell me "Please go away"

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
I ain't afraid of the cold, cruel world outside
No Chicken Little running from a falling sky
Hey now, baby, all I need is you
If you leave me, what will I do?
Valerie, won't you be good to me?

[Verse 4]
You got me down on the knees of my shakin' feet
Can't play the blues, 'cause of you I drop the beat
Valerie, what's your complaint?
I try to be everything I ain't
Valerie, won't you be good to me?

[Outro]
Valerie, won't you be good to me?
Valerie, won't you be good to me?
