When I lost my baby, I almost lost my mind
When I lost my baby, I almost lost my mind
My head is in a spin since she left me behind
I passed a million people but can't tell who I meet
I passed a million people, I can't tell who I meet
'Cause my eyes are full of tears, where can my baby be?
I went to the Gypsy and had my fortune read
I went to see a Gypsy, I had my fortune read
I hung my head in sorrow when she said what she said
Well, I can tell you, people, the news was not so good
Well, I can tell you, people, the news was not so good
She said, "Your baby has quit you, this time she's gone for good"
I Almost Lost My Mind was written by Ivory Joe Hunter.
