My Gal Is Gone Lyrics - Tampa Red

No one to love me, no one to care 

It's mighty hard for me to bear 

This seems to be my last affair 

My gal is gone 

Just as sure as the sun 

Shine up in the skies above 

Why you cannot be happy 

When you ain't with the one you love 

Now I'm as lonesome as I can be 

Nothing else to live for, as I can see 

My happiness is misery 

My gal is gone 

Baby, baby, baby 

Please come back to me 

If I been a bad fella 

I did not intend to be 

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm 

Hmm hmm, hmm hmm 

Lord, my gal is gone 

My heart is heavy and achin' so 

I walk and I worry from door to door 

But I don't feel welcome, no place I go 

Lord, my gal is gone 

I set a-waitin' 

But I never do get no mail 

I'm drifting and worrying 

Just like a ship without a sail
