I Could Never Be Ashamed of You

Ferlin Husky · Walkin and a Hummin' [Capitol] [1961]

(Hank Williams)



Everybody says you let me down

I should be ashamed to take you round

Makes no difference what you used to do

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.



Maybe you were reckless yesterday

But together we can find a brighter way

In my heart I know that you'll come true

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.



--- Instrumental ---



All the happiness I've ever known

Came the day you said you'd be my own

And it matters not what we go through

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you.



Maybe you were cheated in the past

And perhaps those memories will always last

Even though you prove to be untrue

Darling, I could never be ashamed of you...
