"Sad, Sad Song" lyrics

"Sad, Sad Song"

Oh, I went to the doctor
I said "doctor, please, what do you do when your true love leaves?"
He said "the hardest thing in the world to do
Is to find somebody who believes in you"

Make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song
Make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song

And so I went to the whippoorwill
I said "whippoorwill, please, what do you do when your true love leaves?"
He said "I only have but one trick up my sleeve
I sing it over and over till she comes back to me"

I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song
I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song

And so I went to the whale
I said "killer whale, please, what do you do when your true love leaves?"
He said "I only have but one trick up my sleeve
I sing it over and over till she comes back to me"

I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song
I make a sad, make a sad, make a sad sad song

And so I went to my mom
I said "Mama, please, what do you do when your true love leaves?"
She said "the hardest thing in the world to do
Is to find somebody believes in you"
