Lyrics
Love, oh love, oh careless love

You've fly through my head like wine

You've wrecked the life of a many poor girl
Love has negatively affected the lives of many unfortunate girls.
And you nearly spoiled this life of mine
It almost ruined the speaker's own life.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Reiteration of the disruptive and uncontrolled nature of love.
In your clutches of desire
Describes love as having a strong grip of desire on the speaker.
You've made me break a many true vow
Love has caused the speaker to break many sincere promises.
Then you set my very soul on fire
Intense emotions, as love has ignited the speaker's soul.
Love, oh love, oh careless love
Repetition of the theme of love causing sorrow.
All my happiness bereft

Now I'm walkin', talkin' to myself

Love, oh love, oh careless love

Trusted you now, it's too late
The speaker trusted love, but now regrets it, realizing it's too late.
You've made me throw my old friend down

That's why I sing this song of hate

Love, oh love, oh careless love

Night and day, I weep and moan

For my sins, till judgment I'll atone
