Lyrics:

I've got a lovesick tale to tell to you(
Though it ain't no affair of mine
It's 'bout a gal named Sue and a boy named Lou(
They were fighting all the time
Sue came home one afternoon
And found an empty dining room(
Without a word her turtledove had flown
She began to moan(
My sweetie went away but he didn't say where(
He didn't say when, he didn't say why(
Oh, bid me goodbye(
I'm blue as I can be(I know he loved another one but he didn't say who
He didn't say when, he didn't say what(
His mama has got(
That took my sweetie from me
I'm like a little lost sheep(
And I can't sleep
But I keep trying to forget(
My trifling papa has left his mama all alone, I groan(
My sweetie went away but he didn't say where
He didn't say when, he didn't say why
I know I'll die(
Why don't he hurry home
