Kitty Wells – You Can't Love Me When I'm Gone lyrics

(Bill Phillips - Alice Ann Kirby)

Honey, squeeze me right into and thrill my body through and through
Let your heart beat just for me alone
Let your eyes cry lot of tears you better love me while I'm here
'Cause honey, you can't love me when I'm gone.

I'm gonna be long time gone some nights when you come home
You're gonna find yourself in the middle of a teardrop all alone
Well, I stood all I can stand you better love me while you can
'Cause honey, you can't love me when I'm gone.

--- Instrumental Interlude ---

You better stop your runnin' around and put your feet back on the ground
That little white house gonna burst your standing on
Don't you call it this backyard cause these old arms are tired
And honey, they won't catch you, they'll be gone.

I'm gonna be long time gone some nights when you come home
You're gonna find yourself in the middle of a teardrop all alone
Well, I stood all I can stand you better love me while you can
'Cause honey, you can't love me when I'm gone.

'Cause honey, you can't love me when I'm gone...
