Just When I Needed You

Hank Williams Sr. · Other Songs - Hank Williams Sr.

Just when I needed you, you left and went away

You made my life so blue both night and day

You left me here behind, with a troubled worried mind

So broken hearted too just when I needed you



I cried, I cried, I prayed, lord, I tried, to forget you

And never call your name, what a shame, what a shame

You're the one who was to blame

You're the one who was untrue just when I needed you



You said, it's best we part, and never love again

And though it broke my heart, I won't complain

You know I love you still and dear I always will

Although you proved untrue just when I needed you



I cried, I cried, I prayed, Lord, I tried, to forget you

And never call your name, what a shame, what a shame

You're the one who was to blame

You're the one who was untrue just when I needed you



No matter where you wander, no matter what you do

There's a longing in my heart for only you

I love you just the same and I want you back again

Although you proved untrue just when I needed you



I cried, I cried, I prayed, lord, I tried, to forget you

And never call your name, what a shame, what a shame

You're the one who was to blame

You're the one who was untrue just when I needed you
