I'd Rather Have What We Had

Conway Twitty & Loretta Lynn



It used to be a blue one there in room 3-2-1

Over the river where we weren't well known

Now it's two coffees then off to the office

And back to the driveway and sittin' at home.



As he sat around with me, bein' tied down to me

Which one would you rather have, be honest

Dying to be with me, wantin' to be with me

Is this what we wanted so bad

I'd rather have what we had.



We carefully planned it what our hearts demanded

No more motel rooms, no more cheatin' lies.

Now we're lookin' at it a neatly wrapped package

But open it up there's no surprise.



As he sat aroumd with me, bein' tied down to me

Which one would you rather have, be honest

Dying to be with me, wantin' to be with me

Is this what we wanted so bad

I'd rather have what we had...
