I haven't been well in the last two days not since my baby up and walked away

Packed her things and just said so long that I won't be back this time I'm gone

That's when the tears broke out on me and I came down with the miseries

A fever of blues have gotta hundred and three

And that's when the tears broke out on me

[ guitar ]

I never was sick up till then but I've got a feeling this would do me in

Everytime I think about the thing she said I get real sick and I have to go to bed

And that's when the tears broke out on me...

[ guitar ]

They say I'll live well I hope so cause right about now I don't know
I see your face or hear your name from a friend and it's got all over again
And that's when the tears break out on me...
That's when the tears break out on me that's when the tears break out on me
That's when the tears break out on me
