My Sweetie Went Away Lyrics - Careless Love - Bessie Smith

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
