Lyrics Ernest Tubb

Ernest Tubb

Careless Darlin'

You said you love me and me alone

And that you'd always be mine my own

But someone new came

And you did not kept to remember so you forgot

Oh, careless darlin'

How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But careless darlin' you were untrue

Your last goodbye will forever ring within my ear

And full heartaches bring

I kept my promise I kept my vow

But you kept nothing it's so plain now

Oh, careless darlin'

How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But careless darlin' you were untrue

Now if tomorrow those bygone years

Those older mem'ries should bring you tears

Think of our parting that luckless day

You carelessly threw my love away

Oh, careless darlin'

How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But careless darlin' you were untrue
