Just Bidin' My Time

Hank Snow · The Singing Ranger, Vol. 4 [Bear Family (Germany)] [1995]

(Gene McLellan)



I can't believe that you're honestly thinking of leaving me

Cause I thought that leaving really wasn't even on your mind

I'm drowning in tears drowning constantly nearer to misery

Just bidin' my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.



Over and over I practice every day

What to say when I see you

But when I see you my tears get in the way

Just bidin' my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.



I spend my nights making up things I might have to say to you

To stop you from going yet keep you from knowing how I feel

But till the light says goodbye to the night and your face I see

I'll just bidin' my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.

Over and over I practice every day

What to say when I see you

But when I see you my tears get in the way

Just bidin' my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me...
