Oh, I went to the Doctor

I said, Doctor, please

What do you do when your true love leaves?

He said, the hardest thing in the world to do

is to find somebody believes in you.



Make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song

Make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song



And so I went to the Whippoorwill 

I said, Whippoorwill, please

What do you do when your true love leaves?

He said, I only had but one trick up my sleeve

I sing it over and over 'til she comes back to me



I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song

I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song



Oh, I went to a Whale

I said, Killer Whale, please

What do you do when your true love leaves?

He said, I only had but one trick up my sleeve

I sing it over and over 'til she comes back to me



I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song

I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad, sad song



Oh, I went to my Mama

I said, Mama, please

What do you do when your true love leaves?

she said, the hardest thing in the world to do

is to find somebody believes in you.
