There Ain't No Sweet Man That's Worth the Salt of My Tears

Shaking like a leaf on a tree That's coming loose from the stem Shaking like a leaf on a tree Because I'm coming loose from my man I'm like a weeping willow Weeping on my pillow For years & years There ain't no sweet man That's worth the salt of my tears Down & down he dragged me Like a fiend he nagged me For years and years There ain't no sweet man That's worth the salt of my tears Although I may be blue Still I'm through I must tell him goodbye Rather than have that man Gonna lay me down and just die So, broken-hearted sisters Aggravating misters Lend me your ears There ain't no sweet man That's worth the salt of my tears Although I may be blue Still I'm through I must tell him goodbye Rather than have that man Gonna lay me down and just die So, broken-hearted sisters Aggravating misters Lend me your ears There ain't no sweet man That's worth the salt of my tears
