Lonesome Tears in My Eyes Lyrics

Oh baby, baby, baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine
Oh baby, baby, baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine
I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
How must I forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes?
You've broken my heart
Going to do it again
And I can't forget
The spell that I'm in
Can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes
You've broken my heart
Going to do it again
I can't forget
The spell that I'm in
I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes
Oh baby, baby, baby
Blues and sorrow
And I love you tomorrow
It'll suit you just fine
Oh baby, baby, baby
Blues and sorrow
I love you tomorrow
Just suit you just fine
I can't forget that you told me
So many promising lies
I'm a-trying to forget these
Lonesome tears in my eyes

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This is a "rhumbabilly" tune by Johnny Burnette. John played the guitar riff, which he swiped and used again for The Ballad of John and Yoko.
