I can't be happy, mama, for being so blue

When you keep on worrying the way you do

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too



The man you loving, he don't want you 'round

So take me mama, let's leave this town

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too



If he keep on dolling you, the way you do

I may lose my head mama, and my temper too

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too



He wrecked your life mama, right at the start

And if you ain't careful mama, he will break your heart

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too



I love you baby, you know it's true

So why put up mama, with the way you do

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too

When things go wrong, so wrong with you

It hurts me too
