Lyrics: Ernest Tubb. Careless Darlin'.

You said you love me and me alone
And that you'd always be mine my own
But someone new came
And you did not kept to remember so you forgot

Oh, careless darlin'
How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But careless darlin' you were untrue

Your last goodbye will forever ring within my ear
And full heartaches bring
I kept my promise I kept my vow
But you kept nothing it's so plain now

Oh, careless darlin'
How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But careless darlin' you were untrue

Now if tomorrow those bygone years
Those older mem'ries should bring you tears
Think of our parting that luckless day
You carelessly threw my love away

Oh, careless darlin'
How carelessly you broke the vow that you made to me
With all my heart I believed in you
But careless darlin' you were untrue
