|
Forty days and forty nights
|
Since my baby left this town
|
Sunshinin' all day long
|
But the rain keep comin' down
|
She's my life I need her so
|
Why she left I just don't know
|
Forty days and forty nights
|
Since I set right down and cried
|
Keep rainin' all the time
|
But the river is runnin' dry
|
Lord help me it just ain't right
|
I love that girl with all-a my might
|
Forty days and forty nights
|
Since my baby broke my heart
|
Searchin' for her in a while
|
Like a blind man in the dark
|
Love can make a poor man rich
|
Or break his heart I don't know which
|
Forty days and forty nights
|
Like a ship out on the sea
|
Prayin' for her each night
|
That she would come back-a home to me
|
Life is love and love is right
|
I hope she come back home tonight
