The Carter Family - You're Going to Be Sorry You Let Me Down lyrics

[Verse 1] You told me once, dear, I was true and kind You told me then, love, that you were mine But now you tell me that you were blind You like your parties and good times I'm sorry, darling, 'cause you feel this way Once you told me truthful, to my face You've found another to take my place All dressed in diamonds, pearls and lace [Chorus] I'm sorry, darling, because you let me down A truer love now you think you've found But when I'm laid deep down in the ground You're going to be sorry you let me down [Verse 2] So now I've lost you, but still have faith That you will see the mistake you've made And when you find, dear, that you were wrong You'll ask forgiveness and come back home I believed you, darling, when you said to me That we'd be happy, we'd be free But now I found, dear, a fault in thee When we were wed, love, I could not see [Chorus]
