Lovesick Blues

Stonewall Jackson · Other Songs - Stonewall Jackson

I'm in love,

I'm in love,

I'm in love with a girl,

That's what's the matter with me

I'm in love,

I'm in love, with a beautiful girl,

But she don't give a darn about me

to make her love me I tried,

How I sighed and I cried

But she just refused

And ever since she's gone away,

I've got those lovesick blues



Got the feeling called the "blue hoo's,"

since my sweetie said "Good Bye"

Seems I don't know what to "Do Hoo"

All day long I sit and cry

That last long day we spent alone

I'm yearning for it yet

She thrilled me, filled me,

with a kind of lovin',

I never will forget, the way she called me sweet daddy"

Twas just a beautiful dream



I hate to think that it's all over I lost my heart it seems

I got so used to her somehow

But I'm no body's baby

Now, gee it's awful when you're lonesome

and get those lovesick blue-oo-oo-oo-oo's



Got the feeling called the "blue hoo's,"

since my sweetie said "Good Bye"

Seems I don't know what to "Do Hoo"

All day long I sit and cry

That last long day we spent alone

I'm yearning for it yet

She thrilled me, filled me,

with a kind of lovin',

I never will forget, the way she called me sweet daddy

Twas just a beautiful dream



I hate to think that it's all over I lost my heart it seems

i got so used to her somehow

But I'm no body's baby

Now, gee it's awful when you're lonesome

and get those lovesick blue-oo-oo-oo-oo's
