Refrain:

Well, if somehow you could pack up your sorrows,

And give them all to me.

You would lose them, I know how to use them,

Give them all to me.

(Refrain)

No use cryin’, talking to a stranger,

Namin’ the sorrows you’ve seen;

Oh, ’cause there are too many bad times,

Too many sad times,

Nobody knows what you mean.

{Refrain}

No use ramblin’ walkin’ in the shadows,

Trailin’ a wanderin’ star.

No one beside you, no one to hide you,

An’ nobody knows where you are.

{Refrain}

No use roamin’, walking by the roadside,

Seekin’ a satisfied mind.

Ah, ’cause there are too many highways,

Too many byways,

Nobody’s walkin’ behind.

{Refrain}

You would lose them, I know how to use them,

Give them all to me.
