When Nobody Wants Your Body Anymore

(Tom T. Hall)



You were meant for me and there ain't no two ways about it

Even on my darkest days oh they couldn't make me doubt it

Someday things are gonna be the way they were before

When nobody wants your body anymore.



Leave me, I don't worry darling, you'll be back

Honey, I'm not bragging I'm just statin' facts

The ocean always brings each piece of driftwood back to shore

When nobody wants your body anymore.



--- Instrumental ---



I know they have you now sweetheart they don't know what they got

Heaven is still heaven when the weather ain't so hot

When all is done that will be done you'll knock upon my door

When nobody wants your body anymore.



Leave me, I don't worry darling, you'll be back

Honey, I'm not bragging I'm just statin' facts

The ocean always brings each piece of driftwood back to shore

When nobody wants your body anymore.



Unless somebody wants my body before...
