Looking out my window, looking at the rain Nothing left but sorrow, nothing left but pain Why did you go and leave me, sad alone and blue Looking out my window, woman, trying to find you Why did you leave me? Why did you grieve me? Looking out my window, what do I see Nobody's crying half as bad as me I don't think that they feel, so alone and blue Looking out my window woman, trying to find you Why did you leave me? Why did you grieve me? I'd like to tell you about a little girl That left me so alone and blue The trouble is, if I paint the picture too well You might fall in love with her too She was about 5'6, a little bag of tricks My mama told me to watch my back, but I wouldn't listen Because for you baby I'd scratch out my old love baby Looking out my window, down the railroad track Waiting for that little brown eyed girl, she's coming back I can hear the whistle blowing, down the line Oh come on back girl, you'll be mine, all mine Why did you leave me? Why did you grieve me? Woah, baby come on home I'm so alone I don't care what my mamma says I want you anyway I'm down on my knees Begging you please
