Do you feel sorry lover? Do you feel blue? What reason did you have To be untrue? Now you could be so good But you have to be so bad When you could make me Happy lover You make me sad. Now there's a cool breeze blowin' Blowin' out the flame That used to burn inside me At the mention of your name, Now there's a cool breeze blowin' Blowin' down the track, That's where I'm goin' And I'm never comin' back My my, baby's gonna cry My my, baby's gonna cry My my, baby's gonna cry Tonight, oh yea Now there's nothing Comes from nothing That's what they always say Didn't mama tell ya That's the price you have to pay? Now you can't have Your piece of cake And eat the sweet thing too But that kind of understanding Isn't good enough for you My my, baby's gonna cry
