Alberta Hunter — Sad N Lonely Blues

[Verse] I'm never happy any more Always sad and blue I never felt so bad before Oh my, what will I do? My lovin' daddy left me flat And didn't tell me why He simply took his coat and hat If he don't come back I'll die [Chorus] I've got the sad and lonely blues Because my daddy's gone I've got the "Don't know what to do" Guess I'll sing this song I've got my habits on Just like a baby on its side Sit and cry, hope to die I'm thinking maybe, by and by He'll tumble off the horse he's on so high I'm sad and lonely and so blue My heart is broke in two It's awfully hard to lose your man You've learned to love and understand I'll tell the world my worried news I've got the sad and lonely blues [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] I'm sad and lonely and so blue My heart is broke in two The kind of man has not been born To take the place of the one that's gone I'll tell the world my worried news I've got the sad and lonely blues
