When you found somebody new I thought I never would
Forget you for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until down I'm down to hurtin' once a day.

Once a day, all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long.

I'm so glad that I'm not like a girl I knew one time
She lost the one she loved then slowly lost her mind
She sat around and cried her life away
Lucky me I'm only crying once a day.

Once a day, all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long.

Once a day, every day, all day long...
