Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
[Verse 2]
Because you're still livin'
In days done past and gone
[Verse 3]
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
[Verse 4]
Just why, just why, just why
You can keep from cryin'
[Verse 5]
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
It serves you right to suffer
It serve you right to be alone
[Verse 6]
Your doctor put you on milk, cream, and alcohol
You're still livin' in
[Verse 7]
Every time you see a woman
She make you think of yours
Every time you see a woman
She make you think of your own
She treat you so bad
[Verse 8]
Every time you see a woman
She make you think of yours
Every time you see a woman
She make you think of your own
She treat you so bad
[Verse 9]
Mm, you're still livin'
In the days done past and gone and memories
[Verse 10]
You can't live on
In that way, in the past
Them days is gone
