Play me a hurtin' tune 
I want to an old time hurtin' tune 
Make me sigh, make me cry 
Make me want to lay down an' die! 
 
Oh! Play me a hurtin' tune 
A tear your heart out hurtin' tune 
Of a true, sweetheart who 
lost her lover an' feels so blue 
 
I love those "How could you be so cruel, 
treatin' me like a fool?" songs! 
I love those "Now that I know we're through, 
what am I gonna do?" songs! 
 
Please! Play me a hurtin' tune 
I want to an old time hurtin' tune 
Make me sad an' I'll be glad 
'Cause I feel so good when I feel so bad! 
 
( We love to feel so sad, we love to feel so bad, 
go on an' beat me, mistreat me, go ahead an' cheat me, 
I like it, I like it, we like it! ) 
 
Ah! Make me sigh ( make me cry! ) 
Make me want to lay down an' die! 
 
A tear your heart out hurtin' tune 
Of a true, sweetheart who 
lost her lover an' feels so blue 
 
I love those . . . ( "How could you be so cruel, 
treat me like a fool?" songs! ) 
I love those . . . ( "Now that I know we're through, 
what am I gonna do?" songs! ) 
 
Please! Play me a hurtin' tune 
I want to an old time hurtin' tune 
Make me sad an' I'll be glad 
'Cause I feel so good when I feel so bad! 
 
Oh look it girls, he's playin' our song! 
Play us a hurtin' tune 
We want to an old time hurtin' tune 
Make us sad, we'll be glad 
'Cause we feel so good when we feel so sad!
