Forty Days and Forty Nights (Album Version)

Forty days and forty nights
since my baby done left the town
Sun shinin' all day long
but the river keep runnin' dry
She's my life I need her so
why she left I just don't know
Forty days and forty nights
since I sat right down and cried
Keeps rainin' all the time
but the river keep runnin' dry
Lord help me,it just ain't right
I love this child with all my might
Forty days and forty nights
since my baby broke my heart
Searchin' for her everywhere
like a blind man in the dark
Love can make a poor man rich
or break his heart,I don't know which
Forty days and forty nights
like a ship out on the sea
Prayin' for her each night
that she'd come back home to me
Life is love and love is light
I hope she come back home tonight
