How's the World Treating You

(Boudleaux Bryant - Chet Atkins)



I've had nothing but sorrow

Since you said we were through

There's no hope for tomorrow

How's the world treatin' you?



Well, every sweet thing that mattered

Has been broken in two

And all my dreams have been shattered

How's the world treatin' you?



I got no plans for next Sunday

I got no plans for today

Everyday is blue Monday

Every day you're away.



Though our pathways have parted

To your mem'ry I'm true

And guess I'll stay broken hearted,

How's the world treatin' you?



--- Instrumental ---



Well, do you wonder about me

Like I'm hoping you do

Are you lonesome without me

Have you found someone new?



Are you burning and yearning

Do you ever get blue

And do you think of reurning

How's the world treatin' you?



How's the world treatin' you?...
