INTRO: C
#1.
C
How low do you feel, when your baby walks out.
GC
Well, it ain't no time for you to twist and shout.
C
How low do you feel, when she tells you goodbye,
GC
you get so dad-gone lonesome, you wanna die.
CHORUS:
FC
I was broke so flat, I couldn't raise a dime.
FG
Locked in jail and couldn't pay my fine, pay my fine.
C
It never helped my morale to be called a heel,
GC
but when your baby walks out, how low do you feel?
INTERLUDE: C
#3.
C
When you find another man a-layin' in your place.
GC
And she trows your old work clothes out at your face.
C
You gotta tell yourself, that it just can't be real,
GC
but when your baby walks out, how low do you feel?
CHORUS:
FC
I was broke so flat, I couldn't raise a dime.
FG
Locked in jail and couldn't pay my fine, pay my fine.
C
It never helped my morale to be called a heel,
GC
but when your baby walks out, how low do you feel?
INTERLUDE: C
#4.
C
How low do you feel, when old friends say, have a drink
GC
on me and pass the time away.
C
They sympathize with you and say, you got a bad deal,
GC
but when your woman walks out, how low do you feel?
CHORUS:
FC
I was broke so flat, I couldn't raise a dime.
FG
Locked in jail and couldn't pay my fine, pay my fine.
C
It never helped my morale to be called a heel,
GC
but when your baby walks out, how low do you feel?
