Artist/Band: Merle Haggard
Lyrics for Song: I Can't Stand Me
Lyrics for Album: Swinging Doors [1966]



(Merle Haggard)



I can't stand me since I lost you

And I can't stand nobody else

I can't stand me since you went away

And I gotta get away from myself.



I used to be a high-stepper with a lot on the ball

My friends all called me Ace

It took a woman like you to bring a good man down

And make me ashamed to even show my face.



I can't stand me since I lost you

And I can't stand nobody else

I can't stand me since you went away

And I gotta get away from myself.



--- Instrumental ---



Oh, when I look in the glass and see a grown man cry

It makes me wanna hang my head

I used to feel real proud just to be alive

But now I think I'd rather be dead.



I can't stand me since I lost you

And I can't stand nobody else

I can't stand me since you went away

And I gotta get away from myself.



--- Instrumental ---



I'm gonna find me a river about ten miles wide

With a bridge right all way cross

I'm gonna drag myself about half way over

And then I'm gonna throw me off.



I can't stand me since I lost you

And I can't stand nobody else

I can't stand me since you went away

And I gotta get away from myself.



Yeah, I gotta get away from myself...
