I'm Better Off Now That You're Gone Lyrics - The Stanley Brothers

I once had a sweetheart to love me 

But now she has proven untrue 

She's found a new love to treasure 

That's why I'm walking round blue 

The lies you told me are over 

The heart you broke is gone 

And friends they tell me I'm lucky 

I'm better off now that you're gone 

You broke my heart when you loved me 

I've always counted on you 

But now you've strayed with another 

LIttle girl what more could I do 

Some day I know you'll be sorry 

You led my poor heart astray 

You seemed to think it was funny 

But some say darling you'll pay
