Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Oh, see what love has done to me

Oh sorrow, sorrow to my heart
Oh sorrow, sorrow to my heart
Oh sorrow sorrow to my heart
When me and my true love have to part

It's made me cry, it's made me moan
It's made me cry, it's made me moan
It's made me cry, it's made me moan
It's made me leave my happy home.

What, oh what, will mama say
When she learns I've done astray
I love my mama and my papa too
I'd leave them both to go with you.

Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Oh, see what love has done to me...
