You shouldn't have left me, baby 
Baby, you shouldn't have gone away 
Oh, you shouldn't have left me, baby 
Baby, you shouldn't have gone away 
Oh, you left the one that love you, woman 
Cryin' every night and every day 
Someone that you love more, baby 
Made you break my heart in two 
Someone that you love more, baby 
Made you break my heart in two 
I want you to remember, baby 
The same thing could happen to you 
When the pains in your heart, woman 
Make you feel like you could die 
Oh, when the pains, the pains in your heart, baby 
Make you feel like you could die 
Oh, you'll know then that you shouldn't have left me, woman 
Baby, and how it feels to say goodbye
