(Johnny Wright - Jack Anglin - Clyde Baum)

Just when I needed you you left and went away
You made my life so blue both night and day
You left me here behind with a troubled worried mind
So broken hearted too just when I needed you.

I cried, I cried, I prayed I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame what a shame you're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue just when I needed you.

--- Instrumental ---

You said it's best we part and never love again
And though it broke my heart I won't complain
You know I love you still and dear I always will
Although you proved untrue just when I needed you.

I cried, I cried, I prayed, I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame what a shame you're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue just when I needed you...
