Lyrics Just When I Needed You - George Jones

Just When I Needed You

Just when I needed you, you left and went away
You made my life so blue both night and day
You left me here behind, with a troubled, worried mind
So broken hearted too, just when I needed you
I cried, I cried, I prayed, I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame, what a shame
You’re the one that was to blame
You’re the one that proved untrue
Just when I needed you
--- Instrumental ---
You said, it’s best we part, and never love again
And though it broke my heart, I won’t complain
You know I love you still, and dear, I always will
Although you proved untrue, just when I needed you
I cried, I cried, I prayed, and I tried
To forget you and never call your name
What a shame, what a shame
You’re the one that was to blame
You’re the one that proved untrue
Just when I needed you…
