[Verse 1]
Well I had a real good lover
But she's gone from me now
Well you know that she's gone
'Cause there ain't no one here now

[Refrain]
So many say that they are in love
So I can't ignore when there's somebody gone

[Verse 2]
Well you know I had a real good lover
But you, but you know what?
Well she's gone from me now
She'd bring me breakfast in the morning
She'd be home waiting when I get home from the plow

[Refrain]
So many say that they're somewhat in love
So I can't ignore when there's somebody gone

[Instrumental]

[Refrain]
So many say that they're somewhat in love
But I can't ignore that there's nobody mourning
Mourning their love
[Verse 3]
Well I had a real good lover
She's so far from me now
She know I had a real good lover
She made promises now
Well I had a real good lover
She's gone from me now
