Lyrics

Just like a flower I am fading away The doctor call to see me 'most every day But he don't do me no good, why? Because I'm lonesome for you And if you care for me Then you will listen to my plea Oh, daddy, look what you doin' Look what you doin' Oh, daddy, you with your foolin' Think what you're losin' All the little love I gave you Is goin' to make you feel so awfully blue When you miss me and long to kiss me You'll curse the day that you ever quit me Oh, daddy, think when you're all alone You'll get so lonely just wait and see But there will be someone else makin' love to me Then daddy, daddy, you won't have no mama at all Oh, daddy, look what you doin' Look what you doin' Oh, daddy, you and your foolin' Think what you losin' All the little love, I gave you Is goin' to make me feel so awfully blue When you miss me and long to kiss me You'll curse the day that you ever quit me Oh, daddy, think when you're all alone You know that you are getting old You'll miss the way, I baked your jelly roll And daddy, daddy, you won't have no mama at all
