Cat. #1235 (MFH #853) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on October 26, 1971
VERSE 1
I've got heartaches by th number when you left me
I never knew that I could hurt this way
O, how my heart was filled, when you come home again
But you came back an' never meant to stay
CHOURUS:
Now, I've got heartaches by th number
Troubled by th shore
Ever day I love you more an' more
I've got heartaches by th number
It's a love that I cain't win
But th day you stop lovin' me
Is th day my world will end
VERSE 2
Got heartaches by th number
When you called me an' said
You were coming back to stay
With hopeful heart I waited for you
But you must have lost your way
