Confession

Baby, here I stand before you with my heart all in my hand
I'm confessin' that I love you, hope that you will understand
It's the truth, baby? Well, I wouldn't tell you no lie
Well now, if I do not love you, sho' enough, I hope to die

Oh, when those days are dark and dreary and the sun refuse to shine
Well, I never be blue and lonely if I knowed that you was mine
That's the truth, baby. Well now, love me all the time
Well now, I never be blue and lonely if I knowed that you was mine

Yes, I woke up early this mornin' and I was cryin' on my head
I could see you leavin', baby, and I almost thought I was dead
That was true, baby. Well, I wouldn't tell you no lie
Well now, if I do not love you, sho' enough, I hope to die
