Lord, I've lost at cards, I've lost at dice
But I ain't never lost as much as my life, baby
Baby since I lost you
Cause when a man lose his woman, ain't much more he can lose

I lost my wallet, I lost my shoes
The only thing I can't seem to lose is these low down blues
Baby since I lost you
Cause when a man lose his woman, there ain't much more he can lose

Hey, hey, hey

Ah, I lost my job, I found hard times
I'm about to lose my dog gone mind, babe
Baby since I lost you
Cause when a man lose his woman, there ain't much more that he can lose
