Well for my name just call me lonely And my past just say it's bad But the story I'm about to tell you May sound a little sad Well I never had nothing All I ever owned was me I was about to lost myself And then I met Mary Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Don't fall in love with me I will only make you lonely Lonely just like me Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Oh my darling can't you see Just say goodbye and I'll understand it And walk away from me But my darling she would not listen She said boy you shut your mouth If two people really love each other They should try and work things out So I listened to my Mary And my life was filled with glee But one night at a party Some bad luck came to me There was a guy messing with my Mary And I begged him to let her be All I could hear was my Mary crying Because he placed his knife in me Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Don't fall in love with me I will only make you lonely Lonely just like me Oh my darling, oh my darling, oh my darling Oh my darling can't you see Just say goodbye and I'll understand it And walk away from me Just say goodbye and I'll understand it And walk away from me
