- Songwriters: Alex Hill, Clarence Williams
You say that you're leaving
And that you're going away
But before you leave, dear
Please, let me have my say
I know that you feel good now
With nothing on your mind
But just mark my words, dear
There'll come a time
I know you're gonna pay
You'll want me back some day
To drive the blues away
Then see if I care
And when you're feeling blue
No one to talk to you
And you don't know what to do
Then see if I care
Oh, you think nothing of me
And say that you don't love me
The time is coming
When you won't feel like you do now
You gonna call my name
You know that you're to blame
And you won't be the same
Then see if I care
Oh, you're gonna pay
Lord, you'll want me someday
To drive your blues away
Then see if I care
And when you're feeling blue
No one to talk to you
And you don't know what to do
Then see if I care
Oh, you think nothing of me
And you don't love me
The time is coming
When you won't feel like you do now
You gonna call my name
You'll know that you're to blame
Lord, you won't be the same
Then see if I care
In the Know
