Everytime I Love Her

(Larry Gatlin)



Diesel smoke climbin' to the clear blue sky

I sit here wonderin' wanderin' why

I leave her everytime I love her.



Green grass growin' by picket fence

Lord, I just don't make no sense

But I leave her everytime I love her.



I guess it's just in my blood to roam

I ain't never had no permanent home

So I leave her everytime I love her



I guess it's just knowin' that she'll be there

With her dark brown eyes and her yellow hair

And I love her, Lord knows I love her.



Though my mind's dis-satisfied

Just a hoppin' that big ole Mack and ride

And leave her everytime I love her.



I guess it's just in my blood to roam

I ain't never had no permanent home

So I leave her everytime I love her.

One of these days I wanna go back

To that yelllow haired girl and the tumble down shack

And never leave her all I do is love her.



Well, I guess to that I'll be content

Just to drivin' this track and sendin' home the rent

And leave her everytime I love her.



Well. I guess it's just in my blood to roam

I ain't never had no permanent home

So I leave her everytime I love her.



You guess it I really love her...
