Little Jimmy Dickens - Careless Darlin' Lyrics

(Ernest Tubb - Lou Wayne - Bob Shelton)

You said you love me and me alone
And that you'd always be mine my own
But someone new came and you did not
Keep to remember so you forgot.

Oh, careless darlin' how carelessly
You broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But careless darlin' you were untrue.

--- Instrumental ---

Now if tomorrow these bygone years
These older mem'ries should bring you tears
Think of our parting that luckless day
You carelessly threw my love away.

Oh, careless darlin' how carelessly
You broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But careless darlin' you were untrue...
