Sorrows
you'll soon re- gret
You promised me
love that was true
And I'm sorry to say
that I believed in you
For its all turned out
just like a dream
Left me so sad
in the world it seems
There's dishes to wash
and a house to clean
There's washing to do
oh it seems so mean
There's a million words
I can't explain
Think of this girl
before you change your name
They'll go away
and leave you at home
They never care
if you're alone
They seem to forget
they've got a wife
This story is sad,
but it's a true life
An uptempo early (1945) version by Bill Monroe (in sharp A):
and by Del McCoury (in C):
And a great slow drag version by Gillian Welch and David Rawlings (in G#):
