I'll tell the story just once again The way I love you, darling it's a sin You mended my heart, you broke once, baby And now you broken my heart again Lying on my bed, I'm sick at home My mother's dead and my father's gone You said you'd stay here beside me, baby And now you left and I'm all alone I was in Vietnam in '71 I had no love and that was no home
I would send you all my money, baby And all the time you were doing me wrong So now goodbye, if you called that home You left me here, just to cry and moan I'm about to lose my mind, baby So why did you have to roam? Pray with me boys, please pray with me Hey Lord! I'm feeling sad, I'm feeling sad
