Careless Love - Madeleine Peyroux

  1. (Bessie Smith)
    Love, oh love, oh careless love,
    You've fly though my head like wine
    You've wrecked the life
    Of many a poor girl
    And you nearly spoiled this life of mine
    Love, oh love, oh careless love,
    In your clutches of desire
    You've made me break a many true vow
    Then you set my very soul on fire
    Love, oh love, oh careless love,
    All my happiness bereft
    Cause you've filled my heart with weary old blues
    Now I'm walkin' talkin' to myself
    Love, oh love, oh careless love,
    Trusted you now it's too late
    You've made me throw my old friend down
    That's why I sing this song of hate
    Love, oh love, oh careless love,
    Night and day I weep and moan
    You brought the wrong man into this life of mine
    For my sins till judgement I'll atone
