lovesick blues

arlo guthrie

i got a feelin' called the blues

since my baby said good-bye

lawd i don't know what i'll do

all i do is sit and sigh

that last long day she said goodbye

well lawd

i thought i would cry

she'd do me

she'd do you

she's got that kind of lovin'

lawd

i love to hear her

when she calls me sweet daddy

such a beautiful dream

i hate to think it's all over

i lost my heart it seems

i've grown so used to you somehow

but i'm nobody's sugar daddy now

and i'm lonesome

i got the lovesick blues

i'm in love

i'm in love with a beautiful gal

that's whats the matter with me

i'm in love

i'm in love with a beautiful gal

but she don't care about me

lawd i tried and tried to keep her satisfied

but she just wouldn't stay

so now that she is leavin'

this is all i say.
