Alberta Hunter — Some Day Sweetheart You’ll Be Sorry 1922 Version

[Verse 1] You told me that you loved me And I believed in you You've broken every vow you made And you proved yourself untrue But someday sweetheart When we're far apart You'll want me back with you to love and coo And these words will then come true [Chorus] Someday, sweetheart, you may be sorry When you realize what you have done To a true heart that always loved you Then you'll start trying to mend your broken vows You are happy now, and you can't see how That the weary blues could ever come to you But as you sow, so shall you reap, dear And you're bound to reap sorrow someday, sweetheart [Verse 2] Now dear, you know I love you And always have been true I thought some sweet day soon would come When I could be with you But your love has changed And you're to blame You will be sorry, dear, for every tear Then you'll long to have me near [Chorus] Someday sweetheart, you may be sorry When you realize what you have done To a true heart that always loved you Then you'll start trying to mend your broken vows You are happy now, and you can't see how That the weary blues could ever come to you But as you sow, so shall you reap, dear And you're bound to reap sorrow someday, sweetheart
