I never thought I'd ever be one to get a Dear John letter It sure can make a body feel untogether I read it through then I read it once more Lord, I thought I was dyin, dropped the letter to the floor Caught my head in my hands and I cried You don't know how I cried I went to see my doctor, told my doctor you got to help me This hurtin' in my heart's been around since my darlin' left me He said, son, I can cure your blues I can give you pills if you want me to But there ain't nothin' I can do for your kind of trouble My luck ain't been too good the other day you know a mad dog bit me I stopped to help a lady on the street and her husband hit me Don't nothin' seem to make much sense to me My whole world's gone crazy I guess it's just a lesson, just a lesson of the pains of love My luck ain't been too good the other day you know a mad dog bit me I stopped to help a lady on the street and her husband hit me Don't nothin' seem to make much sense to me My whole world's gone crazy I guess it's just a lesson, just a lesson in the pains of love I guess it's just a lesson, just a lesson in the pains of love Well, it must be a lesson, just a lesson in the pains of love
