Tim Gracyk | Paul Whiteman "There Ain't No Sweet Man That's Worth The Salt Of My Tears" Bix & Bing Crosby LYRICS @timgracyk | Uploaded October 2024 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Shaking like a leaf on a tree
That's coming loose from the stem.
Shaking like a leaf on a tree
Because I'm coming loose from my man.

I'm like a weeping willow weeping on my pillow
For years and years--there ain't no sweet man
That's worth the salt of my tears.

Down and down he dragged me.
Like a fiend he nagged me for years and years.
There ain't no sweet man
That's worth the salt of my tears.

Although I may be blue, still I'm through.
I must tell him goodbye
Rather than have that man--
Gonna lay me down and just die.

So, broken-hearted sisters,
Aggravating misters,
Lend me your ears!

There ain't no sweet man
That's worth the salt of my tears.
