Lyrics for Song: Careless Love (1948)
Lyrics for Album: Tomorrow Night 1946-1963 [1991]
Love, oh love, oh careless love.
Love, love oh careless love.
You've caused me to weep, you've caused me to moan.
You've caused me to leave, my happy home.
Careless love, never drive a stranger from your door.
Careless love, never drive a stranger from your door.
'Cause it may be your best friend, knockin' on your door.
It may be your brother, you would never now.
Careless love, just look how you been draggin' me 'round.
Careless love, just look how you been draggin' me 'round.
You have caused me to forsaken mother, she's layin' in six feet of ground.
Careless love, just look how you been draggin' me down.
Careless love, it worried my mother until she died.
Careless love, worried my dad until he lost his mind.
Now darn you, I'm goin' to shoot you, shoot you four, five times,
Then stand over your body, until you finish dyin'.
