Left my girl in New York City Left her crying in the rain Well, I told her that I made my mind up I didn't want to see her again What makes the night so lonely What makes the night so long I guess it's just because I'm a man That's done a good woman wrong I can't eat, I can't sleep All I can do is cry All I can do is cry Told her that she was a trifler Told her that she played around But I was just a lyin' man Trying to hide the tracks he'd found Gonna catch myself a flyer One that's Kansas City bound I'm a-goin' lookin' for my baby Good Lord, I hope she's still around I can't eat, I can't sleep All I can do is cry All I can do is cry
