Just When I Needed You Lyrics

Little Jimmy Dickens Just When I Needed You

Just when I needed you, you left and went away
You made my life so blue, both night and day
You left me here behind with a troubled worried mind
So broken hearted too, just when I needed you

I cried, I cried, I prayed, I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame, what a shame, you're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue just when I needed you

You said it's best we part and never love again
And though it broke my heart, I won't complain
You know I love you still and dear, I always will
Although you proved untrue just when I needed you

I cried, I cried, I prayed, I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame, what a shame, you're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue just when I needed you

No matter where you wander, no matter what you do
There's a longing in my heart for only you
I love you just the same and I want you back again
Although you proved untrue just when I needed you

I cried, I cried, I prayed, I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame, what a shame, you're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue just when I needed you
