You Done Me Wrong (And That Ain't Right)

(Pat McLaughlin)

The mockingbirds are lovely
For this time of year
The one that's up above me
Sounds so blue and clear.

What's he tryin' to tell me
As if it doesn't show
It don't take much to sell me
I plain already know.

You done me wrong and that ain't right
You hit the switch turned out the light
Another's arms have held you tight
You done me wrong and that ain't right.

--- Instrumental ---

Late last Sunday evening
As I was out with friends
Drinking some and gambling
And tieing up loose ends.

Well, I heard some conversation
That I was not supposed to hear
My congratulations
The situation's clear.

You done me wrong and that ain't right
You hit the switch turned out the light
Another's arms have held you tight
You done me wrong and that ain't right.
