Do me wrong, do me right.
Tell me lies but hold me tight.
Save your good-byes for the morning light, but don't let me be lonely tonight.
Say goodbye and say hello.
Sure enough good to see you, but it's time to go.
Don't say yes but please don't say no, I don't want to be lonely tonight.
Go away then, damn you, go on and do as you please,
You ain't gonna see me getting down on my knees.
I'm undecided, and your heart's been divided,
you've been turning my world upside down.
Do me wrong, do me right, right now, baby.
Go on and tell me lies but hold me tight.
Save your good-byes for the morning light, morning light,
but don't let me be lonely tonight.
I don't want to be lonely tonight, no, no, I don't want to be lonely tonight.

![Gregg Allman: Queen of Hearts Laid Back. You Did Good Little Brother
October, 1973
Once I was glad
Always happy, never sad
And every day seemed like Sunday
And although things were slow
Never seemed to have no dough
Somehow, I never once got lonely
Ya see the fact is more or less
Youre gamblin with your own happiness
And most all your would-be friends
Turn out so phony
[Chorus 1]
Oh but times they change
And re-arrange and Ive seen
The Queen of Hearts
Dont know where to start
Or how to stop
[Verse 2]
And as the days have come and gone
Left me feelin that Ive done so wrong
Ive wasted so much time feelin guilty
And as I watch you sit across the room
Beautiful as the flowers bloom
Leave it lay just one day
Oh brother youre gonna come back
To find me gone Gregg Allman: Queen of Hearts Laid Back. You Did Good Little Brother](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zbcxlqbIi0E/mqdefault.jpg)
