Lyrics:

Barrère-Fuller

Last night I sat my baby right down
And said the talk's all round the town
You're cheatin' while I work all day
I guess that feelin's finally gone
And I got so tired of spendin' my nights alone
So I packed my bags and I'm goin' away

But I sure would hate to lose your lovin' don't you know
If you said good-bye it just wouldn't feel right some how
'Cause it felt so good
Whole lot better than I thought it could
Honey I hate to lose you now

Well I swore I wouldn't sit and cry
'Cause my baby left me both high and dry
Wouldn't sit and pine gonna move on down the line
Well I knew just what I had to do
Had to find me some love that's new
'Cause lovin's so easy to find

But I sure would hate to lose that lovin' don't you know
If you said good-bye it just wouldn't feel right some how
'Cause it felt so good
Whole lot better than I thought it could
Honey I hate to lose you now

But I think it's gonna be all right
'Cause I found a little girl last night
And she said you better just move on in
'Cause I got my rent paid through next week and I'll be out tonight
But don't ya know I'll do my best to be back by ten

I sure would hate to lose that lovin' don't you know
If you said good-bye it just wouldn't feel right some how
'Cause it felt so good
Whole lot better than I thought it could
Honey I hate to lose you now
Don't you know
Honey I hate to lose you now
Tryin to tell you
Honey I hate to lose you now
