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
