It Keeps Right On Hurtin’ Songtext
von Albert West

I cry myself to sleep each night
Wishing I could hold you tight
Life seems so empty since you went away

The pillow where you′d lay your head
Now holds my lonely tears instead
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you′ve gone

It keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can′t help it, I don′t think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you′ve gone


They say a man should never cry
But when I see you passin' by
My heart breaks down and cries a million tears

You broke my heart and set me free
But you forgot your memory
And it keeps right on a-hurtin′ since you've gone

It keeps right on a-hurtin′ every minute of the day
Every hour you're away I feel so lonely
And I can't help it, I don′t think I can go on
And it keeps right on a-hurtin′ since you've gone

Yes, it keeps right on a-hurtin′ since you've gone
