Story behind the song
Marty Robbins wrote this heartbreaker where he takes a pragmatic view of love and loss, telling his girl to kiss him goodbye because he knows it's over. In his outlook, love is a zero-sum game, with one heart filled every time another breaks.
The song features an early example of guitar distortion, which was a happy accident. An electrical fault in the preamplifier of session musician Grady Martin's 6-string bass created the distortion that was recorded on the track. Although Martin was unhappy with the sound, it was so effective that Robbins' producer, Glenn Snoddy, left it as it was.
Lyrics
Don't worry 'bout me, it's all over now
Though I may be blue, I'll manage somehow
Love can't be explained, can't be controlled
One day it's warm, next day it's cold
Don't pity me, 'cause I'm feelin' blue
Don't be ashamed, it might have been you
Oh-oh-oh-oh, love, kiss me one time, then go, love
I'll understand, don't worry 'bout me
Sweet, sweet, sweet love, I want you to be
As happy as I, when you loved me
I'll never forget you, your sweet memory
It's all over now, don't worry 'bout me
When one heart tells, one heart, one heart goodbye
One heart is free, one heart will cry
Oh-oh-oh-oh, sweet, sweet baby sweet, baby sweet
It's alright, don't worry 'bout me
