I was just a poor boy
Until you came along
Your love made me richer, yeah
Than a king on his throne
But now you're gone
(Now you're gone)
But now you're gone
(Now you're gone)
These blues are all I've got

For a boy who had so little
I sure have lost a lot
I lost the will to live
When you stopped loving me
Yet I told all my friends
I was glad you set me free
I said I'm better off without you
But heaven knows I'm not
Oh, these blues are all I've got

For a boy who had so little
I sure have lost a lot
Nobody knows
(Nobody knows)
All the trouble I've seen
(The trouble I've seen)
Nobody knows
(Nobody knows)
Just what my troubles mean
(What my troubles mean)
Don't nobody know
(Nobody knows)
All the trouble I've seen
(The trouble I've seen)
Nobody knows
(Nobody knows)
What my troubles mean
