I'm Puttin' It Together
Dave Dudley · Other Songs - Dave Dudley
I'm gettin' it all together but it's been a fight
How come you have to treat me the way that you do
I can put it all together how bout you
Are you looking at tomorrow can you see like I do
Lonly you without me and me without you
I finally have the courage to let you know
How much I love and need you I don't wanna let you go
Can we do a little better someway somehow
We gotta put it all together I mean now we gotta put
it all together I mean now
