Unless You Make Him Set You Free
Roy Drusky · Greatest Hits 2 (Mercury) [1967]
You won my admiration with your determination
That somehow you'll make him set you free
You're such a sweet temptation but you know our destination
Unless you make him set you free.
Don't be too long in doin' what you've got in mind of doin'
I've gotta have you here with me
We're in a situation that could ruin our reputation
Unless you make him set you free.
You've won my admiration with your determination
That somehow you'll wind up with me
You're such a sweet temptation but you know our destination
Unless you make him set you free.
Unless you make him set you free...
Unless You Make Him Set You Free
