Hank Locklin – I'll Go On Alone lyrics

We're traveling down two different roads in world so far apart
You want me yet there's someone else before me in your heart
You're wanting me to change my life the way you're living yours
But I can't change I see no way you wanted me before
If you don't want me like I am then please don't pity me
If you can't change a little bit then why not set me free
If we can't live together then it's best we live apart
You'll go your way and I'll go mine we'll both make brand new starts
[ steel ]
So either say you want my love or take the way you live
Remember though before you get you've got to learn to give
So if it change my life or go then go it's gonna be
Cause I can't change my life when you want something more than me
There's nothing we can do it seems we'll never get along
With you believing like you do you say I live so wrong
But I can't change my way of life I've lived it much too long
You either take me like I am or I'll go on alone
