Charley Pride - Baby Is Gone lyrics

The world goes around and the young men get old The people next door are all down with the cold The stars are in the heaven that's where they belong They don't shine in my world since baby is gone If I were a writer I'd write me a song and all I could say is my baby is gone [ ac.guitar ] They had a farsail downtown yesterday They say that newport house will be finished right away The weatherman says sunshine but I know he's wrong But I don't really care cause baby is gone If I were a traveler I'd go to Hongkong and try to forget that my baby is gone [ ac.guitar ] The sheep're in the meadow the cows're in the corn And I'm here a wishing I'd never been born The newspaper said bout the world's goin' wrong Ain't worried bout the world cause baby is gone If I were a singer I'd sing me a song but who wants to sing when his baby is gone
