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 he left me behind.



I went to see a gypsy and had my fortune read

I went to see a gypsy and 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

She said your baby's left you this time, he's gone for good.
