When my first wife left me, she left my heart in misery When my first wife left me, she left my heart in misery Ever since that day boy, I don't think I'll ever love again.
If I can get her back again, I'll never roam no more If I get her back again, boys, I never roam no more I had a good wife, but I did not treat her right It's my fault, only have myself to blame It's my fault, it's my fault boys, I only have myself to blame She would have been home right now, if I hadn't wanted every woman that I seen I found out one thing, these women don't mean you no good I found out one thing people, these women don't mean you no good You mistreated a good girl for some woman, that she'd turn around and turn her back on you Yes, yeah I'm having bad luck, having bad luck ever since she been gone I'm having bad luck, bad luck, bad luck, ever since my baby been gone When she was at home, Lord, I did not treat her right
