Listen to the rain falling
Can't you hear that lonesome sound?
Oh my poor
old heart is breaking
Because my sweet love ain't around Lord I think I'll start to ramble
I got to leave this weary town This old place is way too lonely
Because my sweet love ain't around
Hey Maurice,
come back to haunt me My dream house has done fell down
This old world is dark around me Because my sweet love ain't around
Nothing tells me that I'm losing Because these weary
blues I found
Oh my baby
left this morning Lord my sweet love ain't around
On that train
tonight I'm leaving
And don't ask me where I'm bound
I can't stay here any longer
Because my sweet love ain't around
