Bad News

I got the bad news this morning
I think I'm gonna have to leave right away
Oh, I got the bad news this morning
I think I'm gonna have to leave right away

You know I hope and I pray
I'll see my loved one another day

Oh, the sad thing in my life
Lord, I got to leave right now
Oh, the sad thing in my life
Lord, I got to leave right now

Oh, there's a strain on my heart
Just knowin' my man's gonna be goin' out
Oh, yes, he is

Lord, hold me over
Honey, I'm gonna miss my baby, bye-bye
Oh, Lord, hold me over
I'm gonna miss my baby, bye-bye

Oh, I'm sad I got to leave you
Oh, I can't seem to wipe thesе tears from my eyes
Oh, I got bad nеws

Hear me nothin' but the bad news
Oh, baby
Why you have to do me like that, baby?
Oh yeah, oh
Oh yeah
Yeah, yeah
