Yeah to keep our love together baby
Oh baby how I tried
You know it wasn't it wasn't easy, it wasn't easy
As a bird flying in the sky
Oh it hurt me it yes it hurt me
When I had to shake your hand and say good bye
Well you know if you had asked me
I would have climbed a mountain high
You know it all tied up and my foot slippin'
You know my body might die
You know I was doin' the dumb things for you baby
But kiss you and say goodbye
I can't say it Johnny, I can't leave her
Oh to lose you baby
You know it hurt me awful bad
Oh you the best woman
Best little girl I ever had
Well you know for you to be leaving me this morning little girl
I'm goin' to always be lonely and sad
Yeah to keep our love together
Oh baby how I tried
Well you know it wasn't easy, but was is easy
As the bird that flies in the sky
You know when I had to kiss and shake your hand little girl
And baby, and said goodbye
