Lyrics

I've been misery 'n
Ever since my daddy gone, yeah
I've been, honey, I've been misery 'n, yes I have, now
Ever since my, since my daddy gone, gone, gone
But I believe that it won't
Baby, it won't be too long
If I just could hang on
Yeah, until my, till my misery
Will all be gone

Whoa, I said my rooms, you know
They're so empty, empty, empty, empty, empty
Filled up with sadness, sometimes, yeah
My rooms are so empty, empty, empty, empty
Child, filled up with sadness, honey, sometimes, sometimes

Oh well it just, it just moves in
Like the fog rolls in
And I find i, well I can't see you, baby
For my tears

But I've tried
Don't you know I've tried
Cried, cried, cried, cried, cried
Baby now, I've been missin' you
Oh, I've been missin' you, babe!

Yeah, and it all seems to bother me
Much more that it seems it should be
So, baby, now, now
Baby, now, now
Baby, tell me why
Does it have to be
Oh, so wrong for me ?

I never thought I could ever want anybody
No, no, no, never did, I never did
Why am I feelin' so strange ???
Whoaaaaa, I never, never, never needed nobody, no, no
But maybe you could help me —
Why am I feelin' so strange ?

Yeah, an' I've got me a great
An' I've got a great big bed
With two pillows for my head
Hey, but lately I been sleepin', sleepin' alone

But I've tried
Don't you know I've tried
Cried, cried
You know how I've cried
An', an' baby, I've been missin' you

Tried
Don't you know I've tried
Cried
Cried, cried, cried, cried
Baby now, I've been missin' you

Tried
Don't you know I've tried
Cried, cried
You know how I've cried
An', an' baby, I've been missin' you
Yeah ..
