Love, oh love, oh careless love You fly though my head like wine You've wrecked the life of a, many a poor girl And you nearly spoiled this life of mine Love, oh love, oh careless love In your clutches of desire You made me break a many true vow Then you set my very soul on fire Love, oh love, oh careless love All my happiness has left You filled my heart with them weary old blues Now I'm walkin' talkin' to myself Love, oh love, oh careless love Trusted you, now it's too late You've made me throw my only friend down That's why I sing this song of hate Love, oh love, oh careless love Night and day I weep and moan You brought the wrong man into my life For my sins, till judgment I'll atone
