Some Day Sweetheart (You’ll Be Sorry) (1922 Version) Lyrics by Alberta Hunter

Alberta Hunter: Complete Recorded Works In Chronological Order Volume 1 (1921-1923)

[Verse 1]
You told me that you loved me
And I believed in you
You've broken every vow you made
And you proved yourself untrue
But someday sweetheart
When we're far apart
You'll want me back with you to love and coo
And these words will then come true
[Chorus]
Someday, sweetheart, you may be sorry
When you realize what you have done
To a true heart that always loved you
Then you'll start trying to mend your broken vows
You are happy now, and you can't see how
That the weary blues could ever come to you
But as you sow, so shall you reap, dear
And you're bound to reap sorrow someday, sweetheart
[Verse 2]
Now dear, you know I love you
And always have been true
I thought some sweet day soon would come
When I could be with you
But your love has changed
And you're to blame
You will be sorry, dear, for every tear
Then you'll long to have me near
[Chorus]
Someday sweetheart, you may be sorry
When you realize what you have done
To a true heart that always loved you
Then you'll start trying to mend your broken vows
You are happy now, and you can't see how
That the weary blues could ever come to you
But as you sow, so shall you reap, dear
And you're bound to reap sorrow someday, sweetheart
