You're lookin' around,
But no one in sight;
Wondering where your baby is tonight;
Have you ever felt that way?
Now you're feeling forlorn,
You've got the boo-hoos,
Night and day you sing those weary
blues;
Have you ever felt that way?
Lord, you are so downhearted,
You don't know what to do;
You ain't got nobody to tell your
troubles to.
Just walking for miles,
No place to go,
Talking to yourself, but you don't
know.
Have you ever felt that way?
