It keeps right on a' hurtin'

life seems so empty since you went away
the pillow where you'd lay your head
now holds my lonely tears instead
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
chorus
it keeps right on a-hurtin' every minute of the day
every hour you're away i feel so lonely
and i can't help it, i don't think i can go on
and it keeps right on a-hurtin' since you're gone
they say a man should never cry
but when i see you passin' by
my heart breaks down and cries a million tears
you broke my heart and set me free
but you forgot your memory
