I'LL SIT ALONE AND CRY
(Potter / Sharp / Wooten)

Lefty Frizzell


Your last day home, I must be gay
To make this one a perfect day
But when you're gone, my day is through
I'll sit alone and cry for you

Tomorrow night you'll be far away
I'll dream of you and yesterday
For in my heart you will always stay
Even though you're far away

(Instrumental Break)

Oh no, my Dear, I must not cry
I want to go with my head up high
But when you're gone, my day is through
I will sit alone and cry for you

I'll pray for you, Darlin', every night
That God will send you home all right
But when you're gone, then I'll be blue
I'll sit alone and cry for you
