Well now sittin' here so lonely....feelin' oh so blue
my baby's tryin' to mistreat me and i don't know what to do
so i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
if i can't love my baby....i can't live another day
Yeah i've loved her for such a long time...to end it all this way
sittin' here so lonely....tears keep fallin' just like rain
so i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
if i can't love my baby....i can't live another day
Yeah you know i love you baby...i'll do anything for you
but when we start to fightin'....i just get these same old blues
So i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
if i can't love my baby....i can't live another day
Yeah now when i first met you baby....at a dance and we did fine
now we're together and it's a total waste of time
so i'm cryin'....why do i have to feel this way
if i can't love my baby....i can't live another day
Well i guess it's just my own fault....the truth i cannot hide
but if i ever get her back again....i'll stay right by her side
i won't be cryin'....i'll stay happy that a way
i'll be lovin' my little baby....every night and every day
