Now the day you left and went away
The mean ole blues walked in to stay
I feel like a child without a home
Come back, baby, I'm all alone

I ain't never been so lonesome in my life before
The day you packed and went away
I never thought that I would stay

I miss you honey, and I'm lonesome too
Never thought a soul could be so blue
Ain't been so lonesome in my life before
I need a little lovin', my heart is sick and sore

Why you left, I don't know why
And if you stay away I know I'll die
Ain't been so lonesome in my life before
