(start with chorus)
I'm in a sad mood tonight
oh I'm in a sad mood
I'm in a sad mood tonight
oh my baby done gone away and left me
my baby done gone yeah
my baby done gone away and left me
my baby done gone

I don't know why she left me
I don't know where shes gone
all I know is that I'll never be happy
until my baby comes back home yeah

(repeat chorus)

I don't know why she left me
but this one thing I know
that if my baby tells me that she'll come back home
I'll never, ever do it no more yeah

(repeat chorus--song fades)
