cnd Lyr Req: Heart in Sorrow (I ain't got no lovin'..) (5) Lyr Add: HEART IN SORROW (S Terry, B McGhee) 15 Jan 17


The song is HEART IN SORROW by Brownie McGhee

1. My babe packed her suitcase and she started to the train.
She's a married woman, but I love her just the same

CHORUS: Don't you know that I ain't got no lovin' baby now.
(Yes, yes) You know that I ain't got no lovin' baby now.
Well, it's I—I ain't got no lover now.
My heart's in sorrow and the tears keep falling down.

2. That ol' lowdown fireman and that ol' cruel engineer.
That ol' dirty conductor took my baby 'way from here.

CHORUS: Don't you know that I ain't got no lovin' baby now. etc.

3. I started to write a letter and I laid the pencil down,
My heart's got sorrow and the tears come rolling down.

CHORUS: That's the reason I ain't got no lovin' baby now. etc.
