Classic Poem

Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, love, oh careless love
You have caused me to weep
You have caused me to moan
You have caused me to leave my happy home

Don't never drive a stranger from your door
Don't never drive a stranger from your door
It may be your best friend knocking
At your door
It may be your brother: you will never know

Careless love, look how you carried me down
Careless love, look how you carried me down
You caused me to lose my mother
And she's laying in six feet of ground
Careless love, I can't let you carry me down

Careless love, you drove me through the rain and snow
Careless love, you drove me through the rain and snow
You have robbed me out of my silver
And out of all of my gold
I'll be damned if you rob me outa my soul

You worried my mother until she died
You caused my father to lose his mind
Now damn you, I'm going to shoot you
And shoot you four or five times
And stand over you until you finish dying
