Let the World Keep on a Turnin'

Loretta Lynn · If We Put Our Heads Together (Loretta Lynn & Ernest Tubb) [1969]

Let the world keep on a turnin'

Let the fire keep on a burnin'

Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky

Let our ship of love keep sailin'

Keep the storm clouds far away and

Hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side.



Please, don't pay me attention

To someone that they should mention

That they saw me in the arms of Mary Jane

Oh, it's plain they're only jealous

And their hearts are filled with malice

Their intention is to only bring us pain.



Let the world keep on a turnin'

Let the fire keep on a burnin'

Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky

Let our ship of love keep sailin'

Keep the storm clouds far away and

Hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side.

When they try to cause us trouble

We'll politely pop their bubble

By ignoring any gossip they might start

So let the north wind keep a blowin'

We'll be safe cause we'll be a knowin'

That our love is safely locked inside our hearts.



Let the world keep on a turnin'

Let the fire keep on a burnin'

Let our love keep on a growin' to the sky

Let our ship of love keep sailin'

Keep the storm clouds far away and

Hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side.



Hand in hand, we'll walk together side by side...
