YANKEE GO HOME
|
WITH WYNN STEWART
|
Writer Harlan Howard
|
|
(Jan) Yankee go home, you'll never love me
|
I know you're just homesick and alone
|
Go on back to Tennessee
|
To your pretty bride to be
|
You don't love me, So Yankee go home
|
(Wynn) Yankee go home
|
Those words still haunt me
|
For I told her she was right and walked away
|
But now that I'm back home I find
|
I just can't get her off my mind
|
For each night in dreams I always hear her saying
|
(Jan) You don't me love, so Yankee go home
|
Yankee go home, you'll never love me
|
Your heart is miles away across the phone
|
I love you with all my heart
|
But the time has come to part
|
You don't love me, so Yankee go home
|
(Wynn) Yankee go home, she stood there crying
|
And to my shame I turned and walked away
|
But now I'm going back across the sea
|
Cause she's the only girl for me
|
And when we're wed, she never more will say
|
(Jan) You don't love me, so Yankee go home
|
