Yeah to keep our love together baby
Oh baby how I tried
You know it wasn't it wasn't easy, wasn't easy
As a bird flying in the sky
Oh it hurt me it hurt me it hurt me
When I had to shake your hand and say good bye
Well you know if had asked me
I would a haved climbed a mountain high
You know it all kind of if my foot slipped
You know my body might have died
You know I would do any dumb thing for you baby
But kiss your hand 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 is the best woman
Best little girl I ever had
Well for you know for you to be leaving me this morning little girl
I'm uh, all weeping lonely and sad
Yeah to keep our love together baby
Oh baby how I tried
Well you know it wasn't it wasn't easy, but was is easy
Is the bird that flies in the sky
You know when I had to kiss you and shake your hand little girl
And baby said goodbye
