Well I had a real good lover
But she's gone from me now
Well you know that she's gone
'Cause there ain't no one here now
So many say that they are in love
So I can't ignore when there's somebody gone
Well you know I had a real good lover
But you, but you know what
Well she's gone from me now
She bring me breakfast in the morning
She be home waiting when I get home from the plow
So many say that they're somewhat in love
So I can't ignore when there's somebody gone
So many say that there's somebody gone
But I can't ignore that there's nobody mourning
Mourning their love
Well I had a real good lover
She's so far from me now
She know I had a real good lover
She made promises now
Well I had a real good lover
She's gone from me now
