GUEST,teetee Lyr Req: It's No Use (Clark/McGuinn) (23) Who sings this song 06 Nov 01


I heard this song on a tape someone recorded a while back. I like the song and know the lyrics but I don't know who sings it. I believe it is a blues song from the 60-70's era. Some of the lyrics are:
" It ain't no use for you to cry
You might as well dry your eyes
You done me wrong, now you wanna come back home
But it ain't no use
There was a time when you were my pride and joy
Woman I loved you like a child loves his toy
You done me wrong, now you wanna come back home
But it's too late, it's just too late
I wanted you, you wanted someone else
You went away and left me, left me all by my
left me all by myself)
No need to cry for your mistakes
I want you to know that it's just too late
You done me wrong now you wanna come back home
but it's too late"
In the beginning of the song there's a couple of minutes of blues-type music playing and a man talking to a woman about fixing her a drink. Then his old girlfriend knocks on the door named Ethel trying to beg him to come back but he tells her it's too late, he's got somebody else.

I hope someone knows who sings this song because I really love the song and want to find other music by this person.
