Oh lordy Lord, oh lordy Lord

It hurts me so bad for us to part

But someday, baby, I am not going to worry my life anymore

So many nights since you've been gone
I've had to worry my life along
But someday, baby, I am not going to worry my life anymore

How many times, how many times since you went away
Have I set and cried and cried both night and day
Someday, baby, I am not going to worry my life anymore

You're on my mind, baby, every place I go
How much I love you, nobody knows
But someday, baby, I am not going to worry my life anymore

So that's my story, baby, this is all I got to say to you
Bye-bye, baby, I don't care what you do
But someday, baby, I am not going to worry my life anymore
