|
So long we've been married
|
Life's burdens we carried
|
Though they kept us humble and made our love true
|
The plans that we make up
|
Someone seems to break up
|
Oh darlin' what else can we do
|
|
We may have to leave here
|
To find peace of mind dear
|
Some place where we can live a life all our own
|
For I know you love me and happy we could be
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
|
While I go out walkin'
|
There's of loose talkin'
|
They say we're unhappy and we'll break apart
|
But darlin' it's not true
|
Because I still love you
|
And I do with all my heart
|
|
We may have to leave here
|
To find peace of mind dear
|
Some place where we can live a life all our own
|
For I know you love me and happy we could be
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
|
They say that you're leavin'
|
That you are deceiving
|
But you tell me they say the same about me
|
But we'll show them they're wrong
|
That loose talk will do harm
|
And hope that the truth they will see
|
|
We may have to leave here
|
To find peace of mind dear
|
Some place where we can live a life all our own
|
For I know you love me and happy we could be
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
