Ginger Is Gentle and Waiting for Me

(Jerry Williams)



Woman stop wasting your time

Woman can't you see I'm not gonna bend for you

Not gonna send for you when I go, oh no

Ginger is gentle and waiting for me in Tennessee.



Woman stop wasting your teardrops

Woman don't you know that all of your reasons

Won't stop me from leavin' somehow, no not now

'Cause Ginger is gentle and waiting for me in Tennessee.



I saved up my money

Got a job down there cotton trees.

Now, I can tear up her letters

Don't have to live off my dreams.



Woman stop wasting your world

Woman can't you see that pity alone

Would break up our home

In the end won't pretend any longer

Ginger is gentle and waiting for me, in Tennessee.



Go on wish me all kinds of pain

I know you've got a right to complain

But now as I walk out the door

I know like I never did before.



Ginger is gentle and waiting for me, in Tennessee.



Ginger is gentle and waiting for me, in Tennessee.



Ginger is gentle and waiting for me, in Tennessee...
