Lyrics: Ernest Tubb. When The World Has Turned You Down.

It's been many months dear since we've parted
And not one word have I heard from you
I'm so all alone and broken hearted and I wonder if you miss me too
When the world has turned you down dear I'll be waiting
When your friends can't be found I'll be there
When your heart is sad and weary and no longer wants to roam
When you have no place to go please come on home
[ piano ]
Darling I don't know just why you left me but I know my heart is broke in two
And if someday you should beside you want me remember I'll be waiting here for you
When the world has turned you down...

[ steel ]
Dear if I had failed you then I'm sorry for I didn't mean to treat you wrong
If you should need me some sad tomorrow you will always find me here at home
When the world has turned you down...
