Careless Darlin' - Ernest Tubb

You said you loved me and me alone

And that you’d always be mine, my own

But someone new came and you did not

Have to remember so you forgot

Oh careless darlin' how carelessly

You broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But, careless darlin' you were untrue

Oh, Buddy Emmons, now

Your last goodbye will forever ring

Within my ear and will heartaches bring

I kept my promise I kept my vow

But you kept nothing it’s so plain now

Oh careless darlin' how carelessly

You broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But, careless darlin' you were untrue

Oh, Billy Byrd, now

Now if tomorrow those bygone years

Those older memories should bring you tears

Think of our parting that luckless day

You carelessly threw my love away

Oh careless darlin' how carelessly

You broke the vow that you made to me

With all my heart I believed in you

But, careless darlin' you were untrue
