I never would have hitchhiked to Birmingham
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
I never would have caught the train to Louisiana
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
Never would have run through the blinding rain
|
Without one dollar to my name
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
|
I never would have seen the trouble that I'm in
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
I would have been gone like a wayward wind
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
Nobody knows it better than me
|
I wouldn't be wishing I was free
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Four cold walls against my will
|
At least I know she's lying still
|
Four cold walls without parole
|
Lord have mercy on my soul
|
|
Never would have gone to that side of town
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
Never would have took a mind to track her home
|
If it hadn't been for love.
|
I never would have loaded up a 44
|
Put myself behind a jail house door
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love.
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Four cold walls against my will.
|
At least I know she's lying still.
|
Four cold walls without parole
|
Lord have mercy on my soul
|
|
I never would have hitchhiked to Birmingham
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
I never would have caught the train to Louisiana
|
If it hadn't been for love
|
I never would have loaded up a 44
|
Put myself behind a jail house door
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
If it hadn't been, if it hadn't been for love
|
