Lyrics

Lovesick Blues

[Chorus] I got a feeling called the blues, oh Lord Since my baby said goodbye Lord, I don't know what I'll do All I do is sat and sigh, "Oh Lord" The last long day she said goodbye Well, Lord, I thought I would cry She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of loving Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me sweet daddy Such a beautiful dream I hate to think it's all over; I've lost my heart it seems I've grown so used to you somehow But I'm nobody's sugar daddy now And I'm lonesome, I got the lovesick blues [Verse] Well I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal That's what's the matter with me Well I'm in love, I'm in love with a beautiful gal But she don't care about me Lord, I tried and I tried to keep her satisfied But she just wouldn't stay So now that she is leaving this is all I can say [Chorus] I got a feeling called the blues oh Lord Since my baby said goodbye Lord, I don't know what I'll do All I do is sat and sigh, "Oh Lord" The last long day she said goodbye Well, Lord, I thought I would cry She'll do me, she'll do you, she's got that kind of loving Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me sweet daddy Such a beautiful dream I hate to think it's all over; I've lost my heart it seems I've grown so used to you somehow But I'm nobody's sugar daddy now And I'm lonesome, I got the lovesick blues
