Lyrics

Slow Blues

[Intro]

My baby don't love me

My baby's gone and made me sad

My baby don't love me

My baby's gone and made me sad

A hard-hearted woman

A hard-hearted woman true

My baby don't love me

My baby don't love me

[Verse 1]

Oh baby, let the flags fly at half mast

Let this darkened hour drift past

Oh, baby, you don't know how much I'm missin' you

[Verse 2]

All my tears are fallin'

All my tears are fallin'

Oh, slow blues is callin'

Oh, baby, you don't know how much I'm missin' you

I do

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby

Go tell this crazy world the true tale

Please let loose this lover's ship to sail

Oh, baby, you don't know how much I'm missin' you

[Bridge]

You don't know how much I love you

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]

My baby don't love me

My baby's gone and made me sad

My baby don't love me

My baby's gone and made me sad

A hard-hearted woman

A hard-hearted woman true

My baby don't love me

My baby don't love me
