Work Me Lord

Work me Lord.
Please don't you leave me
I feel so useless down here,
With no one to love,
Though I've looked everywhere.
And I can't find, anybody to love,
To feel my pain.
So . . .
Why use me Lord?
Don't you know how hard it is,
Trying to live alone?
Everyday I keep tryin' to move forward,
But something is driving me back.
Something's tryin' to hold onto me
Turn my world back.
So . . .
Don't you forget me down here lord,
Don't you forget me lord.
Well I don't think, I'm any very special kind of person down here,
I know better.
Well I don't think you're going to find anybody, not anybody who say
they tried like I tried.
The worst you can say all about me is that I've never satisfied.
So . . .
Please don't leave me, I feel so useless down here.
I can't find anybody to love me, and I've looked around.
Though I've looked everywhere, everywhere.
And I can't find, anybody to love,
To feel my pain.
So . . .
Don't go and leave me lord
Honey don't you go off and leave me lord.
Don't you know how hard it is,
Trying to live alone?
Everyday I keep trying to move forward,
but something is driving me back.
Honey, something's trying to hold onto me,
Turn my world back.
So . . .
Please don't you forget me, don't forget me lord,
I think that maybe, you could use me maybe, I can help you.
Please, don't you go and leave me, no...
Ohhhhh, Nooo...please....Leave me....Please don't ya leave me lord!
Peace and love all, hope this is mostly right.
