[Verse]
I'm in a mess, I guess
I'm in an awful stew
My baby's gone and left me
So what can I do?
I'm a mess, I guess
I'm in an awful way
He packed his bag and left me
Just the other day
We were oh, so happy
Cooee as two birds
Then he said, "I'm leavin'"
I couldn't believe what I had heard
So I'm in a mess, I guess
And I'm in an awful spot
If I don't find another
I'm gonna blow my top

[Refrain]
We were oh, so happy
Cooee as two birds
Then he said, "I'm leavin'"
I couldn't believe what I had heard
So I'm in a mess, I guess
And I'm in an awful spot
If I don't find another
I'm gonna blow my top
[Outro]
Though my story is true and I'm not ashamed to confess
That my baby is gone and I'm in a mess, I guess
