You Can Have Her
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Best of Jim Ed Brown [K-Tel] [2005]
You can have her I don't want her
She didn't loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
All I wanted was love to stay.
If you get the wrong woman
There's only one thing you can do
Just dig a hole, jump right in it
And pull the ground right over you.
You can have her I don't want her
She didn't loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
All I wanted was love to stay.
The girl I love she upped and left me
She ran away with my best friend
Comes home at night just for an hour
When daylight comes she's gone again.
You can have her I don't want her
She didn't loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
All I wanted was love to stay.
Life without love it's mighty empty
Confession is good, good for the soul
I'd rather have love that I can cling to
Than have the world and all of its gold
You can have her I don't want her
She didn't loved me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with
All I wanted was love to stay...
