There Ain’t No Sweet Man That's Worth The Salt Of My Tears - Diana Krall

Shakin' like a leaf on a tree,

That’s coming loose from the stem

Shakin' like a leaf on a tree,

Because I’m coming loose from my man!

I’m like a weeping willow,

Weeping on my pillow,

For years and years,

There ain’t no sweet man that’s worth the salt of my tears

Down and down he dragged me,

Like a fiend he nagged me,

For years and years,

There ain’t no sweet man that’s worth the salt of my tears

Although I may be blue,

Still, I’m true,

I must tell him good-bye!

Rather than have that man,

Gonna lay me down and just die!

So broken-hearted sisters,

Aggravating misters, lend me your ears!

There ain’t no sweet man that’s worth the salt of my tears

Although I may be blue,

Still, I’m true,

I must tell him good-bye!

Rather than have that man,

Gonna lay me down and just die!

So broken-hearted sisters,

Aggravating misters, lend me your ears!

There ain’t no sweet man that’s worth the salt of my tears
