My baby she done left me
I've been blue the whole day long
I get on my knees and I pray
And then I sing this song

You're gone and I'm a-sittin' by myself
You're gone, there ain't nobody else
Things were working out all right
Till that fateful dreadful day
You're gone and I'm a-sittin' by myself

By myself I'll be sittin' by the window
I'll be prayin', wishin', hopin' for that final day
When you say, no more will you roam
But till then I'll be sittin' by myself
(brrr, brrr)

Candlelight burnin', fireplace glowin'
Everything is lookin' so cozy
The wind's gettin' cold and I'm bein' told
I'm feelin' oh-so lonely

You're gone and I'm a-sittin' by myself
You're gone, there ain't nobody else
Things were working out all right
Till that fateful dreadful night
You're gone and I'm a-sittin' by myself

You're gone-gone-gone
You're gone-gone-gone
You're gone-gone-gone down the line
You're gone-gone-gone
You're gone-gone-gone
You're gone and there ain't nobody else
