[Verse 1]
Tender was her touch
When tender was not such an easy thing
She held calamity close
Dropping bad checks in the post and blowin' town
Now she ain't around
[Chorus]
You did wrong (she's gone away from you)
You did wrong (she's gone away from you)
You did wrong and now she's found
Somebody new (whatcha gonna do?)
[Verse 2]
Careless was her sigh
And what money cannot buy is slipping away
Whole lot of sleeping alone
It's been a week since you've shown your face in town
Now she ain't around
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Tender was her touch
When tender was not such an easy thing
Where have you been, my friend?
I've been calling you for days
You ain't been yourself since she went away
There's no need to explain
I've got a heart that's been treated the same
Not so long ago
[Chorus]
