(Freddie Hart and Ann Lucas)
|
So long we've been married
|
Life's burdens we carried
|
Though faith kept us humble and made our love true
|
But 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
|
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
|
I know you love me And happy we could be
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
|
When I go out walkin'
|
There's lots of loose talkin'
|
They say we're unhappy, and we'll drift apart
|
But darlin' it's not true
|
Because I still love you
|
And I do with all of my heart
|
|
They say you are leavin'
|
That you are deceivin'
|
But you tell me they say the same about me
|
Oh, but we'll show them they're wrong
|
That loose talk can do harm
|
And hope that the truth they will see
|
|
We may have to leave here
|
To find peace of mind, dear
|
Someplace where we can live a life of our own
|
I know you love me
|
And happy we could be
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
If some folks would leave us alone
|
