I'm Sad And I'm Lonely
(专辑: Ballads And Folk Songs, Volume 2 - 1946)
I'm sad and I'm lonely, my heart it will break For my sweetheart loves another, Lord, I
wish I
was dead Young ladies, take a
warning, take a
warning from me Don't waste your affection on a
young man so free Because he'll hug you and he'll kiss you and he'll tell you more lies Than the
cross-ties on the
railroad or the
stars in the
sky My cheeks once were red like the
red red rose But now they are white as the
lily that grows I'll build me a
cabin on the
mountain so high Where the
blackbird can't find me or hear my sad cry I'm troubled, yes I'm troubled; I'm troubled in mind If trouble don't kill me, I'll live a
long time I'm sad and I'm lonely, my heart it will break For my sweetheart loves another, Lord, I
wish I
was dead
