I'm Gettin' Tired of Losing You

Loretta Lynn · Country Partners (Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty) [1974]

Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty



Well, here you are again

Just like so many times before

Down on your knees you make a promise

Just as like you've made and never kept before to me

You're tellin' me you're sorry for the things you say

You didn't mean to do.



But old friend you'd better make it

Because I'm gettin' tired of losing you

I've lost you to the booze and bars and uptown girls

A dozen times before.



For years I've tried to fake it

But I ain't a gonna take it anymore

Though I hoped that you'll rehearse your line

You're gonna say and pray it will come true

'Cause there won't be no next time, buddy

I'm gettin' tired of losing you.



But darling, please, please don't leave me

I know I did you wrong before

Just like you said I would

Oh, darling please, please believe me

If you'll take me back just one more time

I promise I'll be good.



Well, here you are again

Just like so many times before

Down on your knees you make a promise

Just as like you've made and never kept before to me

You're tellin' me you're sorry for the things you say

You didn't mean to do...
