If you ever had the blues you know just how I feel. If you ever had the blues you know just how I feel. I'm about to lose my lovin' gal Lucille. I love you mama but I don't like your lowdown ways.
I'd walk for miles, cry or smile. For my mama and daddy. I want them. I want them to know. . Now I feel my love is real. For my mama and daddy. I want them to know.
She left me this morning midnight was turning day. She left me this morning midnight's turning day. I didn't have no blues untill my good gal went away.
My baby, I know that you want me. Each lonely night and day. Your deep blue eyes, how they haunt me. Though you're far away. . Oh, why did she take you away from my arms.
I can't get no money for my pockets. I can't get into the swing of things. Someone keeps my picture in her locket. And she patches up the hole in my dreams.
I've never seen that look in your eyes before. I've never seen that smile on your lips before. I guess I never knew what true love could do but love sure looks good on you.
Once I thought I loved just you. And I thought you loved me too. But just look what thoughts will do. For today you say we're through. . Now another wears the crown.
Darkness fell, my day was night. But heart, you did, you did what's right. Because if she really cared for me. Wish she would be with us tonight. . Thanks to you, oh, heart of mine.
You want me to love just you while you love your share ain't that being a little unfair. It's me stay home while you stay gone till you decide to care.

Well you can't grow a crop when it's dew at the plow. You can't get milk from an old dry cow. You can't keep a woman if you don't know how. It's bad when it's that a way and it's bad a way now.
Hmm hmm hmm hmm. I made a big mistake when I introduced her to my friend. And gave him a chance to dance with her. As I watched them in the crowd I could hear my heart beat loud.
Is it only that you're lonely and I happen to be near. Will a beautiful beginning soon be ending with a tear. Is it only that you're lonely for two arms to hold you tight.
If you've got the money I've got the time we'll go honky tonkin' and we'll have a time. We'll make all the night spots dance drink beer and wine. If you've got the money honey I've got the time.
If you're ever lonely, darling. Think of all that I've been through. Long and lonesome nights, sweetheart. I've waited on you. . Say in your mind you have it coming.
Well if you've got the time honey I've got lot of gold and money. And I'll lay the cash right on the line. We'll go honky tonkin' baby and have a lotta fun and I don't mean maybe.
It may not make me tremble the soft touch of her hand. But she won't break my heart the way you do. So I'm gonna try to give her the best love that I can.
If I had half the sense a fool was born with I wouldn't let my pride keep hangin' on. To put up with the things you come up with I'd pick what's left of me and move along.
