Lyrics for By Myself

Feelin' mighty blue by myself One ol' lonesome shoe by myself Now that love's behind me You'll find me by myself I just sit and stare at the floor Just don't seem to care anymore Since my baby's gone Got a padlock on my door That old black cat keeps hanging 'round But I ain't blaming him 'cause things are bad It ain't his fault I've gone and lost the only love I ever had Lord, Lord, I miss him so, it's no lie And I'm so doggone low I could die So I'll be here, just me here By myself, hmm
