You think I'm sad,
you think I'm lonely
You think I'm dragging
around in my shoes
Though you're left without a maybe,
I'd like to tell you, baby,
that you're so wrong, but it's true,
I never loved you till I lost you,
I've got those so true blues.
You told me that you loved me
when you held me tight,
I said that I would love you to
Then you lit out like a light bulb
late in the night
Cause I told the same story
to your very best friend
And now you're glad
cause you're the only
Lovin' little woman I choose
But when you pull the curtain
That's when I knew for certain
That I was in for bad news
So while you're knowin'
how I miss you,
I've got those so true.
I wish that I could be a
little mountain jack,
then I could run my worries all away.
And I'd just keep on runnin'
till I brought you back,
so you could get my lovin'
twenty -four hours a day.
And now you're glad,
cause you're the only
Lovin' little woman I choose
But when you pull the curtain,
that's when I knew for certain
That I was in for bad news
So while you're knowin'
how I miss you
I've got those so true blues
I've got the blues.
