(So lonely, lonely, baby, but I ain't gonna cry no more)
(So lonely, lonely, baby, can't cry no more)

I've a-waited and a-waited for two whole years
Because a-you were going on a very short vacation
(So lonely, lonely, baby, but I ain't gonna cry no more)
You said you were coming right back to me
Because my love meant so much to you, my baby
(So lonely, lonely, baby, can't cry no more)

You've a-had me walking (Walkin', walkin', walkin')
Everybody's talking (Talkin', talkin', talkin')
You've a-had me crying (Cryin', cryin', cryin')
(For such a long, long time!)
(Oh, bring back your love so I won't have to cry no more, my baby!)
Oh, please bring it back, bring it back, so I won't have to cry no more

[Instrumental]

You've a-had me crawling (Crawlin', crawlin', crawlin')
Almost bawling (Bawlin', bawlin', bawlin')
You've a-had me crying (Cryin', cryin', cryin')
(For such a long, long time!)

(So lonely, lonely, baby, but I ain't gonna cry no more)
(So lonely, lonely, baby, can't cry no more)
I can't cry (Can't cry, no more)
Ain't gonna cry no more (Can't cry, no more)
Can't cry no more (Can't cry, no more)
Can't cry no more (Can't cry, no more)
I-I can't cry (Can't cry, no more)
