Sad And Lonely
Sad And Lonely

DJ Shadow





I'm sad and I'm lonely,
my heart it will break;
My sweetheart loves another,
Lord, I wish I was dead!
My cheeks once were red
as the bloom on the rose,
But now they are whiter
than the lily that grows.


Young ladies, take a  warning,
take a warning from me.
Don't waste your affections
on a young man so free.
He'll hug you, he'll kiss you,
he'll tell you more lies,
Than the cross-ties on the railroad
or the stars in the sky
I'm troubled,
I'm troubled,
I'm troubled in mind;
If trouble don't kill me,
I'll live a long time.
