Artist/Band: Patsy Cline
Lyrics for Song: Who Can I Count On
Lyrics for Album: The Patsy Cline Collection [1991]



(Written by Sammy Masters)

(As released by Patsy Cline 10/16/61)



Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?

I never counted on

You makin' me blue

They say you're a-runnin round

With somebody new

Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?



I thought I held a precious key to heaven

Your love was sweet and gentle at the start

But now I feel that I can't go on living

If livin' means that we must live apart.



Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?

There goes my happiness

And here comes the blues

I can't convince myself

That we're really through

Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?



The door to happiness was almost open

Just one more step or two and I'd be in

Then all at once, the vows you made were broken

The door to happiness was closed again.



Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?

There goes my happiness

And here comes the blues

I can't convince myself

That we're really through

Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?



Who can I count on?

Who can I count on?

Who can I count on

If I can't count on you?..
