I feel so doggone lonely
Today, just isn't my day
When I got home this mornin'
I found a letter on my bed
When I opened up that letter
I broke right down and cried
She said, 'Now daddy, I hate to leave you'
Oh, yeah
'But I'm in love with another guy'
Oh, no, no
I couldn't believe
I couldn't believe she wrote it
So I read it, over again
And when I was finished
The tears came down like rain
The more I read this doggone letter
The more my poor heart cries
She said, Now Daddy, I hate to leave you'
Oh, yeah
'But I'm in love with another guy'
Oh, yeah
My baby, she said
My baby, she said
My baby, she said
This what she said
She said, 'No daddy, I hate to leave you'
Oh, yeah
'But I'm in love with another guy'
