Little Jimmy Dickens – I'll Sit This One Out lyrics

(Marijohn Wilkin - Fred Burch)

I've thought I had beaten down sorrow
I've thought I'd forgotten pain
That I was in clover my troubles were over
But now you're back up again.

Out of sight of my eyes
Is one thing to see you another again
If you're thinking to be startin' over with me
I'll sit this one out if you please.

I'll sit this one out if you please
You've already had the best part of me
It's hard to turn it down when I see you around
But I'll sit this one out if you please.

--- Instrumental ---

You're thinking that we can start over
Take up right where you left me
I remember too well the hurt and how I felt
I'll sit this one out if you please.

I'll sit this one out if you please
You've already had the best part of me
It's hard to turn it down when I see you around
But I'll sit this one out if you please.

Yes, I'll sit this one out if you please...
