Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I feel like this

When my baby can't be found

Well I went to the river

To jump in

My baby showed up and said

'I will tell you when'

Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I feel like this

When my baby can't be found

I love you baby

With all my heart and soul

A love like mine will never grow old

I love you in the mornin'

And in the evenin' too

But ev'rytime you leave me

I get mad with you

Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I feel like this

When my baby can't be found

I love you baby with all my might

A love like mine is out of sight

I'll lie for you if you want me to

I really don't believe your love is true

Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I feel like this

When my baby can't be found

A-well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I'm tore down

I'm almost level with the ground

Well I feel like this

When my baby can't be found
