Ain't it bad, people To have to give up the one you love? It make you feel like Givin' yo' soul to the Lord, above To look in my baby's face Makes me feel so sad and blue To look in my baby's face Makes me feel so sad and blue When she's gone to a strange land People, it's sad she don't want you. ~
