Artist/Band: Skeeter Davis
Lyrics for Song: You Done Me Wrong
Lyrics for Album: Hillbilly Singer (RCA Victor) [1973]



(Ray Price - Stan Jones)



Well, you tell me that you care but now you're gone you got me cryin'

No use denyin' you done me wrong

If I could look inside your heart then maybe I would know the reason

Why you were leavin' me all alone.



Well, you know it's not so when you say it's right for you know you lie

I didn't do one wrong thing to you

Won't you tell me baby why you went and left me here so lonely

I miss you only for I love you.



--- Instrumental ---



Did I ever make you sad so you'd be mad enough to hurt me

And desert me for so long

Well, you're tellin' everyone what you done you think it's funny

Well listen honey you done me wrong.



Well, you know it's not so when you say it's right for you know you lie

I didn't do one wrong thing to you

Won't you tell me baby why you went and left me here so lonely

I miss you only for I love you...
