(Bill Anderson)

When you found somebody new I thought I never would

Forget you for I thought then I never could

But time has taken all the pains away until now I'm down to hurtin' once a day

Once a day all day long and once a night from dusk till dawn

The only time I wish you weren't gone is once a day every day all day long

[ piano ]

I'm so glad that I'm not like a girl I knew one time

She lost the one she loved then slowly lost her mind

She sat around and cried her life away oh lucky me I'm only cryin' once a day

Once a day all day long...

Once a day every day all day long
