My Gal Is Gone

No one to love me, no one to care

It's mighty hard for me to bear

This seems to be my last affair

My gal is gone

Just as sure as the sun

Shine up in the skies above

Why you cannot be happy

When you ain't with the one you love

Now I'm as lonesome as I can be

Nothing else to live for, as I can see

My happiness is misery

My gal is gone

Baby, baby, baby

Please come back to me

If I been a bad fella

I did not intend to be

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm

Lord, my gal is gone

My heart is heavy and achin' so

I walk and I worry from door to door

But I don't feel welcome, no place I go

Lord, my gal is gone

I set a-waitin'

But I never do get no mail

I'm drifting and worrying

Just like a ship without a sail
