You shouldn't have left me, baby
You shouldn't have gone away
You shouldn't have left me, baby
Baby, you shouldn't have gone away
Oh, you left the one that love you, baby
Cryin' every night and every day

Someone that you love more, baby
Made you break my heart in two
Someone that you love more, baby
Made you break my heart in two
I want you to remember, baby
The same thing could happen to you

When the pains in your heart, baby
Make you feel like you could die
Oh, when the pains in your heart, baby
Make you feel like you could die
Then you'll know you shouldn't have left me, woman
Baby, and how it feels to say goodbye
