The mockingbirds are lovely
For this time of year
The one that's up above me
Sounds so blue and clear
What's he tryin' to tell me
As if it doesn't show
It don't take much to sell me
I plain already know
You done me wrong, and that ain't right
You hit the switch, turned out the light
Another's arms have held you tight
You done me wrong, and that ain't right
Late last Sunday ev'nin'
As I was out with friends
Drinking some and gambling
And tying up loose ends
Well, I heard some conversation
That I was not s'pposed to hear
My congratulations
The situation's clear
Late last ev'nin'
As I was out with friends
Drinking some and gambling
And tying up loose ends
Well, I heard some conversation
That I was not s'pposed to hear
My congratulations
The situation's clear
And that ain't right
No, that ain't right
